Isn't being 91 basically a day to day existence as it is
I really like Bobby. 91 is a Hell of a run. For most that make it that far the quality of life is just so-so.
I know he's old. I know it's all our destiny. But this is sad news. Prayers sent to the Bowden family.
The guy is a winner - in life, football and spiritually.
...except the 1994 Orange Bowl
Really?? Geez when is the date for you to take the magic black pill? Man I like you as a Husker poster and have had good discussion with you. But dude that's cold
Say what you want about Bobby Bowden. Arrogant?? Maybe maybe not. He's literally what brought us 3 national championships. Said we needed more speed after our coaches studied them. The reason we went from the 5-2 to the 4-3. Good human being. God be with him and bless him and grant him peace
the guy you shouldnt like would be byron bennet, who missed a 45 yd. fg. with one second left.
Curious as to what his condition is. Is there a reason it's not disclosed? I was reading about Shailene Woodley. She claims to be coming out of some serious medical malfunction but never says what it is. You may as well keep it to yourself if you're going to just be coy about it. Guys I'm really sick, but that's all I can say.
Bobby is classy human being and a great football coach..
He realized that his team was out played that nigh and admitted they were fortunate to win the game..
2 plays stand out were the Floyd’s fumble before he crossed the goal line and Cory Dixon’s called back punt return for a touchdown…

Bowden is one of the most successful college football coaches ever. He has an unofficial overall record of 357-124-4 in 40 years at West Virginia and Florida State and ranks as the second-winningest coach at the top level of college football behind Penn State's Joe Paterno.
Go in peace Coach Bowden. You've influenced a lot of young men to find their work ethic and potential.
Any age is day to day as you don't know if you'll die today, tomorrow.
There were a lot of plays that led to the loss, it should have never come down to that last second fg.
I have a terminal medical condition too. It's call life. At 91 at least we won't be treated to the announcement that "Bowden died unexpectedly today", Some of us old fogies could go at the drop of a hat....and it still wouldn't be unexpected.
Just think how far Bobby was ahead of the whole Name Image and Likeness and 'cost of attendance" thing. Free Shoes University baby.
His son, Terry, said it is pancreatic cancer. That is such a bad one. I wish him the best.
I was at that game. That dude was bound to have some nightmares about that field goal miss.
I'm pretty sure Byron and Trev were roommates in college.
yep, silent killer. Almost always caught too late, after it has gotten into the liver or kidneys. He was a great ambassador of the game. Always had such respect for TO and the program.
Thoughts and prayers to Coach Bowden and his entire family.
Thanks for the update, HBK. Sad news. RIP Coach Bowden.
