Oh I remember Bowden was hell on wheels on that front. FSU was stacked for a long time (seems they're like that again which to me says a lot about Muschamp). I'd forgotten the W-Ls but given how often FSU was showing up at or near the top it makes sense.

And the Fiesta Bowl against Nebraska.
shite like blowing a 31-3 lead in the fourth quarter or losing by 40 in the national title game. No way that would've happened under someone like Saban.

Probably not but I will say those Nebraska teams from that Era were very, very, good. Losing by 40 is probably the worst but what Oregon did to FSU this year should provide at least some solace.

But yeah, people have romanticized Spurrier a lot with the passing of years. He was exciting and loud but he was far from perfect or the way a lot of ranters seem to remember him.
