The Florida State at Wake Forest regular season finale scheduled for Saturday afternoon has been canceled due to a positive COVID-19 test among the Seminoles.
The ACC announced Friday FSU registered a positive test result. Subsequent quarantining and contact tracing left Florida State without enough offensive linemen available to play. Roster numbers that can trigger cancellation of games were set during the preseason by the ACC Medical Advisory Group.
This is the fourth game called off for FSU due to either COVID-19 test results or the reshuffling of ACC schedules. The Seminoles’ home games earlier this season against Clemson and Virginia were canceled the morning the contests were slated to be played. The ACC since shifted its final round of testing back one day to assure results return the day before a game, avoiding unnecessary travel and game-day cancellations.
