FSU vs Florida - Nov 21st, 1998 - Doak Campbell Stadium

The Seminoles rallied from a 12-6 halftime deficit to shut out the Gators in the second half en route to a 23-12 victory. Florida scored its only points on a 50-yard touchdown pass, a safety and a 22-yard field goal after the safety. But the first blow may have been dealt before kickoff. A fracas before the game resulted in the ejection of three players after the Gators gathered at midfield to stomp on the head of the FSU mascot.

Yep. It’s the main reason why I’m watching this replay again. He always has a special place in my heart because of this game.

Will we ever again see the likes of Steve vrs Bobby in this rivalry? Oh, those were the days, my friends-those were the days!

[@jimkelley5812]

Of all the Florida vrs FSU games I have watched, "The Rooster Game" in 1998 is my favorite! As Bobby stated, the Rooster played within himself.

I watched every game from 1987-2002.

If Napier doesn't survive if UF goes after Kiffin that could be a nice little rivalry as I think both could stay a long while. Big if and not quite the clash of personalities, well, maybe there is some, just different.

As a Florida fan this was a really bad loss. Gerard Warren def had a touchdown. Prob would have beaten tenn in a rematch. But that’s sports for you lol
