Florida State football’s 2027 ACC opponents

The Atlantic Coast Conference will announce the full 2027 schedule, including game dates, early in 2027. The season will be the second year of the conference’s 9+1 schedule model. Under that model, the majority of Atlantic Coast Conference teams will play nine conference games, and teams must play at least 10 games each year against Power 4 opponents.

The 2027 season will mark the seventh consecutive season, and the 10th since 2016, that Florida State has played at least 10 Power 4 opponents in the regular season. Florida State and Miami have played every season since 1969. Florida State and Clemson have played every season except 2020 since Florida State joined the Atlantic Coast Conference in 1992.

Florida State will host Stanford for the first time in program history. The trip to Cal will be the first matchup between Florida State and the Bears in Berkeley. Season ticket renewals for the 2027 season are open on Seminoles.com.
