Florida State Spring Football Game To Kick at 3:00 p.m. on Saturday, April 9

Florida Citrus Sports will host Florida State football’s 2016 Spring Game, the annual intersquad scrimmage, on Saturday, April 9 at Orlando Citrus Bowl Stadium. The game will kick off at 3:00 p.m.

This will be the first time that the game has been played in The City Beautiful and will provide an opportunity for Seminole fans throughout the state a chance to see their team in a central location while also giving Orlando residents a chance to see some college football action during the offseason.

The Seminoles are expected to once again compete for the national championship in 2016. The team was ranked No. 4 by The Bleacher Report in a poll that aggregated the early preseason polls to formulate a single consensus poll. In addition to returning some outstanding student-athletes, the ‘Noles put together the No. 1 recruiting class in 2016 according to ESPN, giving a boost to an already talented squad.

Festivities will begin on Friday, April 8th at I-Drive 360, where the traditional pre-Spring Game pep rally takes place from 5:00 – 10:00 p.m. The event will feature appearances from The Marching Chiefs, the Seminole cheerleaders, and a free concert by the Velcro Pygmies.

General admission tickets to the game are just $5 in advance and $10 on the day of the game.

The 2016 Spring Game will be the first of two FSU appearances in Orlando in the span of about five months. The ‘Noles will take on Ole Miss to kick off its 2016 regular season campaign in the inaugural Orlando Kickoff game on Labor Day, September 5. That game is expected to sell out, with FSU/Ole Miss season ticket holders and Florida Citrus Sports members receiving priority access.
