<< He is the winningest coach in all
of college football and the game
against UCLA will mark his 28th bowl
appearance in his 31 years as FSU's
head coach.

This year has been one of the

most frustrating of his three decade
tenure in Tallahassee - but give him
credit - he clearly knows things are
very different these days.

BOBBY BOWDEN

That lack of disclipline is
frustrating, as well, but Bowden has
the experience to see first hand why it
has deteriorated.

BOBBY BOWDEN

The Emerald Bowl will be FSU's
25th straight bowl game.

It was a Hollywood story for a
once homeless couple that took their
vows this Christmas.

The bride and groom were married
infront of hundreds of homeless people.

They met while taking part in a
program that helped them get their
lives back together.

The groom already has a full-time
job and the bride will start a new job
after the new year.

Now, we're going to
Louisiana...where the holiday spirit
lived on this Christmas, even after
Hurricane Katrina took everything away.

He may have been the only one but

the man who now lives in this trailer
with his family says decorating was a
tradition in the neighborhood and he
plans on keeping it that way.

And don't worry, Santa was able to
find the family's new home.
