The Florida State Seminoles’ schedule for the 2025 season was unveiled on Monday night, sparking excitement for one of the most anticipated matchups: the clash against the Alabama Crimson Tide on August 30. This game will mark the beginning of a home-and-home series at the newly renovated Doak Campbell Stadium.
During the schedule release on Monday evening, former Florida State quarterback and ACC Network analyst EJ Manuel highlighted the significance of this game for the Seminoles. Manuel underscored the importance of this matchup for both the program and its fan base, especially after a dismal 2-10 season in 2024 that left Florida State without bowl eligibility. He stressed that such a record should not be associated with FSU Football.
The Seminoles, who last won the ACC Championship in 2023, are aiming to bounce back and reinvigorate their program. Manuel believes that a victory over a formidable SEC opponent like Alabama could reignite excitement and optimism among the fans, who endured a disappointing season.
As the Seminoles look to regain their championship form, the August 30 game against Alabama will be a crucial test and a potential turning point for the team’s resurgence in 2025.
