The Virginia-Florida State game was postponed on Saturday morning after positive coronavirus tests and contact trace quarantines with the Seminoles — the second straight week they had a game postponed hours before kickoff.
Last Saturday, the Clemson-Florida State game was also postponed after the chief medical officers from both schools could not agree about whether it was safe to play the game — unleashing a torrent of criticism from Clemson coach Dabo Swinney — who said Florida State should have to forfeit the game. In that case, Clemson traveled to Tallahassee with a player who ultimately tested positive for the coronavirus.
In this case, Florida State is the program with the coronavirus issues. Neither the Clemson-Florida State nor the Virginia-Florida State games have been rescheduled at this time.
