FSU football has begun preparation for the 2021 season that begins on September 5 by hosting Notre Dame.

That’s a game we’ve known about for some time, but the remainder of the schedule with dates was released Thursday morning.

Here’s a look at the schedule:

  • September 5-Notre Dame (Home)
  • September 11-Jacksonville State (Home)
  • September 18-Wake Forest (Away)
  • September 25-Louisville (Home)
  • October 2-Syracuse (Home, Family Weekend)
  • October 9-North Carolina (Away)
  • October 23-UMASS (Home, Homecoming)
  • October 30-Clemson (Away)
  • November 6-NC State (Home)
  • November 13-Miami (Home)
  • November 20-Boston College (Away)
  • November 27-Florida (Away)

When I first look at the schedule, I notice four home games in the first five weeks of the season.
