It’s already a contest that is being thought of as the Game of The Year – the Florida State Seminoles and Alabama Crimson Tide will open the season against each other on September 2nd in Atlanta, the debut game of the city’s new Mercedes Benz Stadium.
For FSU football, it will be a chance to start off what some experts feel will be a season that will end in the same spot – with the Seminoles playing in the national championship game next season that is also being played in Atlanta.
It will be a battle between teams that have combined to win four of the last six national titles, played for another one while also winning a combined eight conference titles over that span.
