79. Dunn Deal

Warrick Dunn silences crowd at The Swamp

Nov. 11, 1993: In front of what was then the largest crowd (85,507) to witness a football game (professional or college) in the state of Florida, and facing third-and-10 from Florida State's 21, freshman Warrick Dunn, who was a second option for quarterback Charlie Ward on the play, silenced The Swamp when his 79-yard catch-and-run put the Seminoles up 33-21 over Florida late in a win that propelled the Noles into the national championship.
