Florida State Seminoles Football

The Florida State Seminoles can trace the origins of their team, as well as their team colors, all the way back to the turn of the century, when their 1902 team sported gold shirts with purple Fs on the front. The Seminoles became a nationally recognized program from the mid-1970s onward after legendary head coach Bobby Bowden took over, leading the team through over three decades of success in their conference, in Bowl games (in which they boast an all-time record of 29-18-3), and nationally, with two claimed and six unclaimed national championships. The team has continued to be competitive since Bowden’s departure in 2009 amidst ever-improving conference rivals, posting a 10-2 record in 2022 and 13-1 record in 2023 after several less than impressive seasons.

Are Florida State Seminoles football games exciting?

Attending a Florida State Seminoles football game is about far more than just the game itself. Students, alumni, and general fans do whatever they can to get to Seminoles games, some travel long distances to see the team in action. The buildup to each home game at FSU is intense, with pep rallies, tailgating, and parties along with the popular lighting of the spear on the “Unconquered” statue outside the south entrance of Doak Campbell Stadium. A fiery spear also makes an impressive appearance prior to kickoff, when the team’s mascot Osceola, a Seminole chief (based on an actual historical person), gallops across the field on Renegade, his Appaloosa horse, to plant the flaming weapon in the midfield turf. As the games progresses, garnet (deep purple) and gold-clad fans urge their team on with renditions of the FSU Fight Song, pumped up by the largest college marching band in the world, the Marching Chiefs, as well as the War Chant.
