No. When the SEC announced an expansion from 10 to 12 teams in 1990, officials of the SEC made a presentation to the FSU athletic department concerning joining the conference. However, the Atlantic Coast Conference was also expanding and pushed hard for Florida State to join. Once the SEC ADs got wind of this, they met and decided not to extend an invitation to FSU. Click on the "FSU and the SEC" link below to read an excellent article from the Florida Times Union concerning FSU and its early 1990s courting by the ACC and SEC.
FSU was an 'independant' and not affliated with a conference until it joined the Atlantic Coast Conference.

Assuming you mean football..FSU has won/shared 12 ACC championships.
Florida and Georgia. These two are true rivals in the South Eastern Conference and always play each other in Jacksonville, Florida at a neutral site, home of the Jacksonville Jaguars. Florida State is also a big game because of both teams being in Florida, but FSU is a part of the ACC, therefore it does not have quite as much impact.
They're in the same athletic conference - I don't believe that there is any law that REQUIRES them to play one another.
Yes, the state Legislature has passed a law that requires Florida and Florida State to play each other. Florida is in the SEC and Florida State is in the ACC.
