FSU coach Bowden has laugh about for-sale sign prank

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- A prankster placed a for-sale sign on Florida State coach Bobby Bowden's yard last night after archrival Miami defeated the Seminoles 37-29 with 13 points in the final 1:15.

Bowden said it reminded him of his days in West Virginia in the 1970s when he was once hung in effigy as well after a loss.

Florida State (4-3, 1-3 Atlantic Coast Conference) has now lost 10 of its last 14 league games after losing its second straight Saturday.

Bowden chuckled at the joke and said he'll save the sign for when he's ready to move.

Haha, that's kinda funny. I like Bowden though, he's the man.

Yeah, I have no problems with him. But I think at this point he's a JoPa type...earned the right to go on his own terms. I doubt FSU or PSU will be serious contenders while either is still in charge...
