    I will always remember this game. It was the last game I attended with my dad before he was diagnosed with cancer in 1998. Thank you Coach Spurrier for all of the wonderful memories in the 90s. "You can't spell citrus without UT". We have been gator fans since 1978. I remember when it was announced that Steve Spurrier would be the coach of the Gators in 1990. My dad said, "you watch, he's going to change things here".

    Still one of my all time favorite Gator moments...I was 15 when this game was played and now I watch this clip like 10 times ever year during FSU week. It never gets old! GO GATORS on Saturday. Can't wait to see everyone amped up for FSU and senior day!

    This was the first UF-FSU game I witnessed, and what a game it was! The Gators had been trailing the whole game, but kept fighting and fighting. I was 17 at the time. My dad and I went together and the rest of the family didn't come that year. I can't watch that Johnson to Green pass without tears coming to my eyes. This was without question the best game I have ever witnessed and remains to this day the only time I've ever seen the UF students try to rush the field.

      13 myself and I too watch this clip several times a year. I have an FSU fan cousin who took his phone off the hook during the sugar bowl the previous season. He took it off the hook before I could call him for the Taylor TD.

    This was the most satisfied I ever felt after a Gator win. No shot at an SEC championship or national championship, just making good on the chance to steal one from St. Bubba and ruin his year. Sublime. And of course every win we got against him was critical to that final LOSING record he had against Florida, 17-18-1.

    I was there too. I was 11. quezi and fred taylor were like my IDOLS. i also remember sitting near some guy who had a thick THICK accent, the thickest i've ever heard. He kept yelling "COM' OWHN DAWG!" I seriously thought he was some displaced uga fan. until i realized he was saying "COME ON DOUG!"
    i also remember the home game in 99 where fsu fans were chanting "PE-TER WAR-RICK!" and we just chanted back "DILL-ARDS DILL-ARDS!" Great, great times.
    can't beat the gameday atmosphere of the swamp.

    • @DWM2309
      @DWM2309 4 роки тому

      That comes and goes with time. In 97 both UF and FSU were powerhouse teams Since 2000 both teams haven't really been at the same level. some years FSU was a top tier team. 2013 national champion,2014 CFP semifinals appearance and UF was somewhere in the middle. Other years Florida was a top team. 06 and 08 national champions, 2018 and 2019 NY6 bowl appearances.

    • @TheVega318
      @TheVega318 3 роки тому

      No rivalries only feel intense when both team are competing at high levels at the same time, lately FSU and Florida have been reaching peaks at different times so it seems less intense when really its not.

    Spurriers best coaching moment! FSU was better than us this year but he coached up his QBs between plays and found a way to win. this was payback for the choke at doak and their win in the bowl game that year.we beat them twice in a row when they were # 1......HOW SWEET IT WAS! my second favorite game against them besides the chompionship!

  • @DanTheGOAT90
    @DanTheGOAT90 17 років тому

    you are 100 percent right. FSU has achieved much in the last 15 years with one of the greatest coaches to ever put on the headset. but when FSU was dominant in the 90s. UF was right there with them. thats why every year when they played they were both in the top 5. it was a great rivalry and i cant wait till FSU returns to the elite so that the rivalry will be great again. I respect FSUs time as champs so please respect ours. stop tryin to diss our season.

Didn't compete for a championship that year but it sure was nice to make sure FSU didn't either lol. What an awesome football game this was, it's still one of the best i've ever watched and i've seen some good ones.

    as much as I despise the noles, I would absolutely love to see fsu get back to the national championship scene every year like the 90s because the uf-fsu games were always SO INTENSE and SO GREAT to watch and I honestly kinda miss that. i mean don't get me wrong it's been fun beating ass the last 5 years but games like theseis what made the UF-FSU rivalry in the 90s THE BEST IN COLLEGE FOOTBALL! someone always had a shot at the national title when it was UF-FSU time.

  • @triggert531
    @triggert531 15 років тому

    I got to see one ball game the entire time I was in Iraq. I graduated from FL and so of course got to watch my Gators lose on a last second TD Hail Mary. I think Florida ended-up on the FSU 33 when the clock ran out. That was November 2003. Even though FL has dominated lately....for years it was the Seminoles with the upper hand.

  • @321gates

    We had a group of FSU friends in town for the game. The plan was for them to hang out after the game. By the time we got home from the game, they had already made it home from the stadium, packed up and left. They also would not answer their phones when we tried to reach them just to make sure everything was alright. Great night for sure.

  • @HBK358
    @HBK358 15 років тому

    Florida had no business winning this game. Fred Taylor literally beat us practically by himself in this game. They could have played this game 10 more times and FSU would have won them all. 97's team was probably better than both national championship teams from 93 and 99.

Despite the downward spiral of the past 6 years, we've still accomplished more than all but a handful of teams in the last decade, and still have a top level program despite a disappointing stretch

    Curiously, I seem to recall seeing an Alabama player doing the Gator Chomp after they won the SEC Championship game this year... I guess we'll have to wait and see.
