FSU to Face Notre Dame Eight Times in Next 20 Years

Florida State’s Nov. 10, 2018 trip to South Bend has been etched in stone for some time, but the Seminoles now know how often they’ll face Notre Dame.

In a release Thursday, the ACC announced its scheduled opponents for the Fighting Irish through 2037. Notre Dame and FSU will meet eight times through that year.

In addition to next year’s trip to South Bend, the Seminoles and Irish will meet on Labor Day or Sept. 6 in Tallahassee to kick off the 2021 campaign. FSU is set to open the 2018 season against Virginia Tech on Labor Day. The 2021 contest with Notre Dame will be the ninth scheduled Labor Day contest for FSU since 2004.

In addition to those years, the schools will meet in South Bend in 2024, 2030, 2032 and 2036. The Fighting Irish will come to Doak Campbell Stadium in 2026 and 2029.

All-time, FSU holds a 6-2 advantage over the Fighting Irish. The Seminoles have won the last three with the most recent being a controversial 31-27 victory in Tallahassee in 2014.
