Florida State University has announced that its 2027 football season will begin with a matchup against a Sun Belt Conference program, according to a report from FSU Wire on Thursday.

The specific opponent from the Sun Belt has not yet been disclosed. The Seminoles' season opener is scheduled for the 2027 campaign, with further details on the date and venue expected to be released at a later time.

FSU, a perennial contender in the Atlantic Coast Conference, regularly schedules non-conference games against Group of Five programs to open the season. The Sun Belt has produced several competitive teams in recent years, including programs that have challenged Power Four opponents.
