I was at that game and it was awesome! Gotta give props to Florida fans cause they helped me push my truck out of the ditch after the game ever though I was wearing my FSU jersey
My sincerest apologies. I was one of the Gator fans that gave you the middle finger and just kept walking. It was either you or another FSU guy who had his truck stuck at that game. I let my emotions get the best of me and I'm genuinely sorry. I'll gladly come help you if I see you and your truck ever stuck again though!
Even though more was at stake in the previous decade or so, this was one of my favorite games of this rivalry. The Swamp is a hell of a place to play and it's always special to be able to get a W there
It’s also a special game because it was so poorly officiated that it is the game that led to the NCAA instituting the official review in college football.
@@hapaharley1706 yep its true you could probably google the sports casters after the game. The ACC officially reviewed the game and apologized for so many missed calls afterward
@@gwentant9348 Watch the FSU/Miami game from 2011 or 2012. That will show you awful referees. This one doesn't even come close. You were there but you didn't get the advantage of TV review.
11:32 Blatant holding by the RG, not called. 11:44 Blatant movement by the UF #61, 74, 77, called offsides on FSU. Free set of downs. UF got 3 free points off both those blown calls.
I was at this game and was so pissed off after the game. Refs continually made favorable calls for FSU all night. It was like the ACC paid those refs, oh wait, the ACC did pay that officiating crew and it showed. So many bad calls. The refs did all they could to give FSU the win. Even with all the help the refs gave FSU, the Noles barely won. Florida was clearly the superior team that year. Still glad that Ron Zook didn't stay too long. Those pansies up in Illinois decided they liked how Ron Zook made Gators football suck and fall from grace and decided they want in on some Zook action. Just a bunch of fruits in Illinois that like losing, I assume.
No, the UF players just liked continuing as if the play wasn't over. 1. 0:56 Forward progress stopped. 2. 2:44 Never had possession. 3. 3:30 Did you think he wasn't out? 4. 3:51 Not ruled a fumble. 5. 4:18 Fumble or not, FSU recovered the ball. 6. 8:48 Late hit on UF not called. 7. 9:19 No horsecollar call on the Rix fumble. 8. 10:00 Was that called a first down? Doesn't look like it was. 9. 11:32 Blatant holding by the RG, not called. 10. 11:44 Blatant movement by the UF #61, 74, 77, called offsides on FSU. Free set of downs and a closer FG. 11. 12:56 That was a TD with the stretch called down by the ACC refs. You're just mad because UF didn't win a game when they had their chances. All you have to do is hold FSU to under 34 points. It's not that hard, but UF couldn't do it. UF fans and players are the biggest babies when they losing, shooting double-birds at opposing fans, crying about how they outgained FSU in 2011, spitting at FSU players when they're down 37-7 or 30-7 in the 4th, gouging out Georgia and Georgia Southern players' eyes when they feel like it, etc.
Vern was good with the call, but the announcers were so one sided. The excitement when Florida would score, and the annoyance when FSU would do the same.

@@RevAlSharptonz It this is a serious comment, that actually really cool that you found the guy so many years later. Small world i guess😂.
@@RevAlSharptonz it’s football man
Should have called an ACC ref, they would have gotten you out no prob.
This game is the reason why college football now has instant replay.

@@RayofLightTarot Really? I didn't know that. I do remember some iffy calls, particularly the Chris Davis fumble that wasn't called
@@hapaharley1706 yep its true you could probably google the sports casters after the game. The ACC officially reviewed the game and apologized for so many missed calls afterward
This FSU UF game is my favorite!
FSU winning at Florida in 1999 was awesome ⁉🏈📚💺🟨Florida State punched their ticket to the BCS Championship game with the win! 🎫
i'll never forget the swindle in the Swamp
Alot of back and forth scoring in this game. Go Noles!-----;;>
Man this was epic. Gooooo noles
This game was officiated so poorly that the NCAA finally broke down an instituted video review.
What were the bad calls?
There were 4 or 5 that were the most obvious miscalls I had ever seen. I was there. Couldn't believe it.
Hahaha yes I was just commenting the same thing

@@encycl07pedia-you’re so mistaken. The no/bad calls in this game were insane.
Why do the Gators do an alligator chomp to the tune of a shark movie? Asking for a friend.
One of the worst officiated games of all time
That hit on Chris Leak around the 3:55-4:00 mark would have got someone arrested these days.
Rix has a cannon! i forget how much talent he brought.........Jimbo would've had him a top 15 draft pick. Just sayin
I’m a die hard Seminole but I hated to watch the games with Chris Rix as our QB. He was sooo bad. I almost broke my tv watching this game.
I put more blame on Jeff Bowden, he was terrible.
He was very inconsistent..Florida State did win the ACC in 2002 and 2003 though ⁉🟨🏈🏟🏆🏆
FSU fans in this thread with Blue and Orange profile pictures. C'mon, man.
Rix should’ve beat the U too but kickers lol
Forgot about Dominique Robinson
We’ll always love Chris Rix because he was good at killing the Gata.
Dude has such a quick release
Loved UF getting punked lmao
Noles fo life!!!!!
Rix has the stronger arm,Leak was the better qb even as a freshman.
Back when there was parody in college football. When it was in it's prime.
parity lol
If Chris Rix had played to this level, every game, he would had been one of the best QB's at FSU! He was so inconsistent though!
wow.. acc refs were so blatantly bad. they gave the game to fsu
11:32 Blatant holding by the RG, not called.
11:44 Blatant movement by the UF #61, 74, 77, called offsides on FSU. Free set of downs. UF got 3 free points off both those blown calls.

This guy blaming the refs 17 years later
@@doefam8320 Some people have decent memories and can still recall that game like it was yesterday. Don't get your panties in a bunch.
@@RevAlSharptonz classic gator fan...they cheated🤣😂🤣 what a baby back bitch😏💪💪💪
Florida had a strange year in 2003..beat BCS Champion LSU at LSU..Florida won at ARK, UK, and SC but lost at home to Tennessee and to Ole Miss ⁉💺🏈📚🏟

@Matthew Walker Still better than 4-8.

Florida state Seminoles and Florida gators are both of my college football teams and that is straight facts 💯
