Cataloging our top 100 FSU plays countdown: A look back at a series for the ages

It’s been a few days since the 2018 Florida State football season began, and just about as many since our countdown of the top 100 plays in Seminole football history wrapped up. Today, we take a moment to look back at the constituent elements of the countdown.

When?

Not surprisingly, more plays from the 1990s made the countdown than from any other decade of Seminole football history. Here’s the breakdown:

  • ’90s: 36
  • ’10s: 25
  • ’80s: 19
  • ’00s: 9
  • ’60s: 8
  • ’70s: 2
  • ’50s: 1
  • ’40s: 0

Furthermore, 78 of the plays came within the regular season, while 22 came in the postseason— and 11 occurred during a national title game appearance.
