FSU Seminoles at Michigan Wolverines 1991 highlights, Part 1

The Seminoles overpowered the Wolverines in a much anticipated match-up during the 1991-92 college football season, winning 51-31. When you reduce the screen size, the quality isn't too bad for a 16 year old video. Enjoy!!

I was at this game. This was built up as the game of the century. FSU just kicked UM ass. What amazed me was how the FSU band and fans dominated the atmosphere at Michigan Stadium. Of the dozen or so UM games I have been to, I never witnessed that before.

[@JohnRoland]

This is one of my all time favorite FSU games.

[@jrpark05]

As a southerner who lived in Michigan for years, this game was deeply satisfying.

[@emminem17]

Also, don't forget that NFL veteran quarterback Brad Johnson was the second string quarterback that year, and was the holder for the field goals and extra points.. FSU was incredibly deep back then..

[@38Noles]

Excellent video. I was only 9 years old in 1991 but this remains my favorite Florida State game of all time. For me it really captures the essence of FSU football in the 1980s and early 1990s: beating a highly ranked traditional power on the road with big plays and tricks. Buckley's pick 6 on the first play of the game really set the tone, and the "Crocodile" trick play on the next drive was vintage Bowden (how cool is it to see Charlie as a sophomore passing to Weldon?).

[@sign84]

Greatest FSU game ever!

[@JBSchmoov]

What a matchup. T-Buck versus Desmond Howard. Bar None Floyd @ 3:23. Amp Lee. Nice upload. Brings back great memories.

[@brojam11]

I was attending FAMU those days man. I remember screaming my lungs out in glee as Terrell Buckley ran back that INT. Hell Yeah!!!! I knew it was on then when he got that pick and ran it in for 6.

[@hall2911]

Thank you for these videos.

[@MrBlackmaster]

Howard vs Buckley was one classic matchup those two was going after each other. But FSU kick our ass

[@80svideoluvr]

I remember a quote from an FSU player that year in reference to FSU's loss to the 'canes that year. It was something like: "We thought we were going to win that game. They KNEW they were going to win it." Back in those days the 'canes had FSU beat even before kickoff whenever they played in football.

[@EderikSchneider1973USA]

Tallahassee was so close to winning a National Championship in the early 1990s. But still had Miami in their way.

[@hisaoawesome]

Desmond Howard's catch @ 1:58 wouldv'e been called incomplete in todays game because he used the ground to catch the ball

[@oldredbarnman]

Unfortunately M lost, but this was the most exciting half of football I have ever seen. 31-23 FSU at halftime.

[@goonole]

Several things about this game. 1) Michigan field was nothing but crap. They let the grass grow to try to slow us down, but there were holes all over this field. 2) This was just an ass kicking by the Noles. 3) The trick play where Casey caught and ran was one of the hardest hits he ever took in college. He told me it really hurt.

[@mikehancho75]

Buckley didn't have a stand out career in the league, but he was solid for a long time. Corner is a tough position to get a lot of recognition because fame is all about picks. Shut down corners who don't get a lot of int's don't get a lot of glory.

[@jsimmons12]

He wasn't a shutdown corner in the NFL.

[@emminem17]

That's true, Miami as a team wasn't great that year, but they had a very good defense, and a capable offense. Their starting linebackers were all future NFL studs, Darrin Smith, Michael Barrow and Jesse Armstead. On offense, they had a good quartet of receivers. On the other hand, the 'Noles were absolutely stacked on both sides of the ball, and they were playing at home..

[@80svideoluvr]

Final score of 31 - 51 if I remember correctly. That's almost unheard of for the Wolverwienies to give 51 points up at home in football. Not that I minded, of course. Even better, for me, was seeing the Washington Huskies pulverize the Wolverwienies 34 - 14 in the Rose Bowl in a game that wasn't that "close." Anytime the Miss-again Wolverwienies lose, no matter WHAT the sport, it's a GOOD DAY for me!!

[@hisaoawesome]

The best two helmets in college football

[@duvalsports904]

It's amazing that Buckley and Howard neither had great NFL careers.. They were incredible in college!

[@jefferyrandall8030]

Buckley was ok. With the Dolphins especially.

[@01CanesrdGOAT]

Damn, FSU whipped that ass.

[@sign84]

This was back in the day when we had a coach that could "coach."

[@80svideoluvr]

I bow down to you, buddy. I had to be content to watch the Dawgs kill the Wolverwienies on TV. Not that that was bad!

[@80svideoluvr]

Steve Emtman OWNED Miss-again's O-line that day. And remember, in the days leading up to the game he got sick and had a fever of over 100 degrees! Just imagine how bad they could have beaten those pompous jerks if Steve Emtman had been HEALTHY!

[@Radnole24]

What ass kicking that day was for FSU. It was a sod game.

[@WestheLegend]

Man...the good ole days of the Noles, haha, DeZ Howard was in Beast Mode the entire game, lol any guy out there challengin Terrell Buckley HAD to be beastin

[@emminem17]

@AMorrell14 No... Actually, Weldon was the starter, Brad Johnson was the backup QB, and Charlie Ward was the 3rd string quarterback (and backup punter).

[@toomuchtoomuch]

On the first replay after T-Buck's pick, that looks like a bunch on Nole fans going crazy.

[@kobraf150]

@m2diggs the camera is on the field level and most of the Nole fans were in the South endzone at ground level so thus adding to the noise on that side. I remember being at this game and hearing drowning mocking chears of "FUCK THE SEMINOLES!" but seriously we were beaten by the best that day.

[@brobj]

Classic FSU

[@AMorrell14]

@emminem17 Weldon was the first string and Ward was second string @ 2:25

[@brobj]

Do you have the Choke at Doak? I missed that game and have have yet to see it.

[@brojam11]

I am sorry, I have to go with 1989 UM vs. FSU. There were so many hits that game it wasn't even funny. Dexter Carter's sweep to the left side for the first score of the game and that booming lick on Leonard Conley from Leroy Butler (I think) are the 2 plays that stands out the most to me from that game.

[@dolamich]

nc st had fsu number mid - late 90's - virginia end the acc streak. vs the neb the ncaa gave fsu a win and you know it. phantom flag on the kick return for a td. feel good about having a 28 year old as your qb for the second title - earn the win, dont ask for it.

[@Patrick101cool]

I swear Casey Weldon was at my school for the great american teach in.

[@mikehancho75]

Casey played at my high school. I had a buddy who dated his sister.

[@SFFOOL76]

I went to that Rose Bowl when UW smacked Michigan upside down left right . It was great talking sh*t to michigan fans and their heisman trophy winner.

[@1deanwdaniel]

fsu!!!!!

[@yoshilicker]

lol casey weldons son goes to my middle school. he plays quaterback too.

[@904austin]

Back in the 90's the series was tied wasnt it.

[@SFFOOL76]

Michigan was a good team, but FSU ripped them a new asshole in this game. Im still baffled how FSU lost to Miami that year, that Miami team wasn't great.

[@yoshilicker]

@CookieMonsturrrrrrrr you know him?

[@yoshilicker]

@CookieMonsturrrrrrrr andrew who?

[@SFFOOL76]

Also they were a step slow and less talented (other than Desmond Howard) to FSU & Washington.

[@mike23151]

yeah should have won the championship that year oh well beat the aggies in da cotton bowl holla

[@dolamich]

as for ur team the feld off - yall let a qb have a field day on ur so -called great def. weinke barely beat ou in a title game - their just kids coming out of H.S. and u bragging.lolololol

[@dolamich]

im not a fan period.sports is fake, like the circus, full of clowns. for a team to average 1 lost a season show that they should have been in every title game each. why would the ref throw the flag: monday nite telecast could not find a reason on that play, so they covered it up. since u like look up stats, go find out and c how much money they made. mindless civilian mr. 28 wasnt so great in the pro's n for u to say he was the greatest goes with ur intelligence.
