I have ton's of respect for Coach Bowden but something keeps coming to mind every time that I see FSU play now. Former FSU QB Casey Weldon once made a statement that rings true about FSU's offense in the late nineties after the first MNC.
He said something to the effect, "Offensive playcalling at FSU used to be about trying to win the game, now its about trying NOT TO LOSE!"
I remember in the 80's FSU had a very diverse, aggressive offense. It always had the opposition on their heels. That is dead at FSU. I don't care who the OC is at them moment.
And your right, Coaching does matter. Usually, your team reflects the personality of the coach!
