Week thirteen for the Seminoles concludes the regular season, and maybe number thirteen will prove to be lucky as they try to take down the number one team, in all the land, wrecking their Gators shot at a national title
FSU Head Football Coach Bobby Bowden says,
"This is the 34th year I've played against them and of course seventeen of them have been down there. It's really a spectacle, a game."
A win over the Gators won't erase what happened earlier in the year, but it will end the season on a high note and give Florida State some momentum as they head into their bowl game.
FSU Senior Linebacker Dekoda Watson adds,
"Go out there, and like I said, control what we can control. It's been said all this year, we've been the underdog the whole games we were supposed to lose we won and we still have the opportunity to do that Saturday. Go out there and be ready to play, we can make something happen."
FSU Sophomore Running Back Jermaine Thomas adds,
"I think it would really give us some confidence heading into next season and finishing up with a bowl. It will make me proud and the fans proud. This is a big rivalry game, it's like a national championship to me so I'll be really proud.
Heading into the 54th meeting between the two schools, the Seminoles will try to end a five game loosing skid to their instate rivals as the Gators say goodbye to Tim Tebow and the rest of the seniors in the 2009 finale.
