Top 15 Non-Conference College Football Games to Watch This Year

7. Florida State Seminoles at Florida Gators; Saturday, Nov. 28

Over the last two years, it was pretty clear that Jimbo Fisher’s Florida State Seminoles would come out on top in this bitter in-state rivalry with Jameis Winston at the helm and Will Muschamp on the other side. But last year, things got close, as they did with almost every game Florida State was in, or so it seemed.

This year, the game is in Gainesville. As Jim McElwain continues to build his program, which starting with a major last-ditch effort to put together a decent class on National Signing Day, he should have his team developed enough with enough talent to be able to compete at home with a rebuilding Florida State team at the end of the season.

The rivalry game between Florida and Florida State alone makes this worth watching every year, but with Winston gone, Florida on the rise, and the very possibility that these two teams could be on even playing field in November, there is a lot to look forward to with this game this year.

Oh, and like Stephen A. Smith would say about Kwame Brown with the Lakers, Will Muschamp is gone. Celebrate. That gives the Gators a chance against the ‘Noles.
