Florida State National Championship Trophies Stolen
 

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) -- Florida State authorities are searching for a pair of $30,000 Waterford crystal footballs symbolizing the school's national championships in 1993 and 1999 that were stolen last weekend.

The trophies, awarded by Sears for winning the final coaches poll, were housed in a locked wooden-and-glass case outside coach Bobby Bowden's offices.

There are no surveillance cameras in that area and the trophies were not insured, athletic director David Hart Jr. said.

Hart called the theft senseless.

"What do you do with those?" he asked.

The 1993 team finished 12-1, beating Nebraska in the Orange Bowl. The 1999 team went 12-0, defeating Virginia Tech in the Sugar Bowl.

If you're an OU or Texas fan you might find the humor in this. I think the trophies are with Cedric Benson's plasma TV set.

well, i guess we know one place where they ain't

Bro, that's one thing that I know we have in common. Just clean 'ol fashion hatred for UT football. :D

I'll be in Dallas again this October to witness my 5th OU-TX whoopin' in a row.

It also could have been Laverneus Coles. He seems to like the 10 finger discount.

Why didn't they take the National Championship Water Skiing trophies as well?

Maybe Adrian McPherson had some gambling debts to pay off?

He's actually doing better now. He's tearing up the AFL.

Might actually get drafted next year for the NFL if they can look past his obvious character issues. He could have been a great talent at FSU. I'll never forget how he tore up Miami's D in garbage time 2 years ago.
