Just moments after Antone Smith iced Saturday's win over Clemson with a 41-yard touchdown run, the Florida State fans put the icing on the cake for their legendary head coach.With 1:49 left and the Seminoles comfortably ahead 41-27, the Doak Campbell Stadium crowd began singing an impromptu version of "Happy Birthday" to Bobby Bowden. "That was good," said Bowden, "I agree. It was a very happy birthday." The 79-year-old watched his Seminoles get in a 10-0, first-half hole for the third time in four games. And for the third time in four games they came back to win.
After the game, FSU and Clemson prayed together on the field (picture to the right) which is a tradition with the two teams and a great way to end the game regardless of who wins or loses. After all, it is just a game and there are many more important things in life than winning or losing and praying together keeps it all in perspective for the coaches, players and hopefully fans.
Good job Seminoles and Happy Birthday Bobby!
