The annual rivalry between Florida State and Miami will be a prime time affair this year.

The Atlantic Coast Conference has announced that the Oct. 20 game between the No. 11 Florida State Seminoles and the Miami Hurricanes will kickoff at 8 p.m. from Sun Life Stadium in Miami, Fla. and will be shown nationally on ABC.

Both teams will be searching for wins this week after disappointing losses last Saturday. After dropping a 17-16 heartbreaker to the North Carolina State Wolfpack, the Seminoles head back home to Tallahassee to welcome the Boston College Eagles. Kickoff is scheduled for 5:30 p.m. ET.

The Hurricanes are also back home this week after suffering a 41-3 neutral site loss to the Notre Dame Fighting Irish in Chicago, Ill. Miami will look to push past the loss to the Fighting Irish, taking on the North Carolina Tar Heels this Saturday. Kickoff is set for 2:30 p.m. ET.
