Description

Florida State hasn't won a season opener since defeating Ole Miss in 2016. The streak includes losses against Alabama and Notre Dame, but also conference opponents Virginia Tech and Georgia Tech.

Unlike past openers, the Seminoles aren't squaring off against a ranked opponent or another Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) program in Week Zero. Instead, Florida State hosts Duquesne from the Football Championship Subdivision (FCS).

Entering his third season in Tallahassee, head coach Mike Norvell has begun building his culture in the program but it's led to just eight wins in two seasons.

Meanwhile, the Dukes and head coach Jerry Schmitt are looking forward to the opportunity of upsetting the Seminoles in front of a national audience.

The game is scheduled for Aug. 27 in Doak S. Campbell Stadium. Kickoff is 5 p.m. on ACC Network.
