Winsipedia - Alabama Crimson Tide vs. Florida State Seminoles football series history

 

[iowajerms]

Next week, we finish this round.

In 2 weeks, we will begin the 2nd round consolation.

When that round is over, we will do 1 matchup from the championship bracket and 1 matchup from the consolation bracket each week.

Even though FSU is the better school I even had to vote Bama. Also Winsipedia is wrong. FSU does have 1 win against Bama. Nicky's first year at Bama.

Well the biggest problem here obviously is that FSU only has so much history to look back on. They have made the most of their time as a program though.

Unfortunately for them, Alabama has fielded championship teams in nearly every decade since the 20s. Whereas FSU didn't have football until much, MUCH later.

That win was vacated. That's probably why it doesn't count.

I know they won. I was in the stands.

 

[7Samurai13]

I know they won. I was in the stands.

Doesn't change the fact that winsipedia doesn't count vacated wins or awards.

 

[4down20]

Vacated wins are dumb. I didn't even know FSU vacated that win because I don't know a single Alabama fan who doesn't think of it as a loss. This just confirms that being on the other end of a vacated win doesn't mean a damn thing to the fans. Nobody really cares.

Funny enough, I think even if Alabama had won it would have been vacated because of that stupid textbook thing.

Most of us are hoping that game for 2017 with FSU gets scheduled so we can get some revenge.

Yeah that was 1 of 14 wins they had vacated over the academic "scandal". That scandal was about an online music course. How can people cheat on an online course where your book can be open?

It twas a joke.

 

[Bandwagonbo2]

By getting other people to do the work.

I think their next matchup vs USC will be the 2nd best of quarterfinal round. I think Michigan-ND might be better.
