For the second season in a row, Florida State and Florida will face off to begin the slate of college football games.

According to a release from the ACC, the Nov. 24 contest in Tallahassee will start at noon EST and air on ABC. Last season’s contest in Gainesville also kicked off at noon.

The Seminoles have won five straight in the series with the most recent being a 38-22 victory last season. FSU won two years ago in a prime time showdown in the last meeting in Tallahassee.

The rivalry contest could be what it comes down to for FSU to preserve the nation’s longest bowl streak. For that to happen, the Seminoles, who sit at 4-6, will need to beat Boston College on Saturday.

Florida is 7-3 and ranked in the AP top 15. The Gators take on Idaho at home this week.
