The 1991 Florida State Seminoles showed a lot of promise in their quest to deliver Coach Bobby Bowden the program’s first national championship. FSU began the season ranked No. 1 in the AP poll. They quickly dispatched No. 19 BYU in the season opener in Anaheim, California, and proceeded to roll through unranked Tulane and Western Michigan. In week four, the Seminoles beat Michigan 51-31 in the Big House in one of the most important games in program history to that point.
