Bowden Bowl 8: Heartbreak in Seminole Country



eighth installment of what has come to be called the Bowden Bowl is a heckuva game. Too bad Florida State Seminoles came into the short end of the stick.

For eight consecutive years now, Clemson Tigers, the coach's son Tommy Bowden and Florida State Seminoles coach Bobby Bowden father played together in the Bowden Bowl. I always wondered what it must be like for Ann Bowden, wife of Bobby and Tommy's mother. Who do you root for? How to celebrate the winner? In order to console the loser?

At the same time, I keep coming back to the same idea -. What a nice problem are

Tommy Bobby won two of three previous meetings. None of Clemson wins have come on Bobby Bowden Field at Doak Campbell Stadium in Tallahassee, Florida. In fact, before this game, Clemson has not won a game at Florida State home field in nearly 20 years.

Not on this night.

With less than ten seconds left, Clemson scores go ahead goal before Florida State stunned the crowd.

father and son to shake hands in the middle of the field.

Bottom line:. Clemson 27, FSU 20
