BILL PETERSON


Bill Peterson took over a football program in deep trouble in 1960. When he left, 11 years and four bowl games later, he had become the most significant coach in the first 25 years of Florida State football. Under "Pete", the Seminoles went 62-42-11. The most memorable Peterson year was 1964, when the "Seven Magnificents" led Florida State to a 9-1-1 record and FSU's first ever win over Florida.
