FSU and Georgia cancel home-and-home series, now in discussion to play a neutral-site matchup soon
Key Points:
- Florida State and Georgia have mutually agreed to cancel their previously scheduled home-and-home football series for the 2027 and 2028 seasons due to both schools now playing nine-game conference schedules.
- The original games were set for September 4, 2027, in Tallahassee and September 16, 2028, in Athens, but evolving conference scheduling mandates made the series impractical.
- Both schools are currently discussing the possibility of a future neutral-site matchup, with optimism about finalizing plans, though no confirmation has been made about a potential 2028 game in Tampa.
- Florida State Athletics Director Michael Alford emphasized that canceling the series will not reduce the total number of home games on Florida State’s schedule going forward.
- Florida State is set to begin its 2026 season on August 29 at Doak Campbell Stadium against New Mexico State.
