After days of wrestling with this decision, Florida State and Boise State have agreed to move their looming Week 1 matchup out of harm's way.

The game, which had been scheduled to take place in Jacksonville, has been relocated to FSU's home in Tallahassee due to Hurricane Dorian.

Florida Governer Ron DeSantis declared a state of emergency on Thursday morning, and also announced that the game would be moved to ensure the safety of the players, coaches, staff and fans.

"They have to look for ways to accommodate that," DeSantis said Thursday. "I think they are going to go forward with the game but they are not going to do it in Jacksonville. They are going to do the game in Tallahassee and I think they will have more details for everybody who is interested in that going forward.”

The game should be heavily-attended, and a de facto home game for Florida State, which will now play in their usual Doak Campbell Stadium.

The matchup, which had originally been scheduled for Saturday at 7 p.m. ET, has been moved to noon. The broadcast schedule has yet to be updated.
