News broke yesterday that FSU and Georgia are canceling the home and home series in favor of a neutral site game likely based in Tampa, Florida. College Football programs, in an effort to generate revenue and control scheduling, are becoming more reluctant to schedule tough, out-of-conference games in the future (Nebraska-Tennessee & Alabama-West Virginia already canceled their home-and-home series in 2025). With the news that the AFCA is pushing for the College Football Playoff to expand to 24 teams, it’s becoming increasingly likely that major P4 programs will try to move to a scheduling model that maximizes the chances of being an at-large bid for the playoff. Teacher Appreciation Week brings two testimonies from two Seminoles:
