Dalvin Cook vs. Michigan

What can we say, Dalvin Cook was a special player at FSU football and that’s why you see his name some prominently on this list.

Cook was the Orange Bowl MVP and deservedly so as he torched Michigan’s defense on the ground and through the air.

He finished the game with 145 yards rushing and a touchdown, plus three receptions for 62 yards.

The great thing about this performance was most pundits gave FSU football no shot at beating Michigan as seven point underdogs.

They thought Michigan’s “vaunted defense” would shut Cook and the FSU offense down. Of course, Michigan hadn’t faced an offense or a player the caliber of Cook all season and it showed as FSU won the game 33-32.
