FSU Football: Osceola, Renegade ranked among football’s most iconic symbols

For just over four decades, two things were constant with the FSU football program: the team was going to end each season with a winning record on the field and the crowd inside of Doak Campbell Stadium was going to get fired up each time Chief Osceola put that flaming spear into the middle of the field while riding Renegade.

While the whole winning season streak ended after last season, the pregame tradition has remained the same – to the point where the FSU student selected and trained for years to be the one honored to spend a season riding the beautiful Appaloosa horse has traveled to away games, bowl games and more.
