For the past 33 years, Florida State has closed out the regular season against in-state rival Florida.
If new FSU head coach Jimbo Fisher had his way, which by the way he doesn't, the schedule would be flipped for a couple of years.
Speaking to a Seminole Booster club in Atlanta, Fisher was asked, the Orlando Sentinel writes, if "organizers from the Chick-fil-A Kickoff had approached" FSU and given the school an invitation to play in the season-opening game at the Georgia Dome, one that annually pits an ACC school versus one from the SEC.
While Fisher conceded they had, a game against Alabama was mentioned by organizers, the coach flipped the script on the question and offered up an intriguing idea for the Kickoff committee, moving the FSU-UF regular-season finale to the beginning of the year.
Fisher's plan would call for the two schools to "do it up here two years in a row," saying that it "makes a lot of sense" from both a financial aspect and from the angle that it would allow the loser of the game -- couchcoughSeminolesSixYearsRunningcoughcough -- the rest of the season to climb back from the loss.
So, with that being said, Fisher amitted that his idea has almost no chance of coming to life.
