Syracuse and Wake Forest will kick off the 2027 college football season at Toronto’s BMO Field with a Week 0 matchup “on either Aug. 28 or Aug. 29” that “will serve as the ACC opener for both teams.” The game will mark the “first time two American universities will open the year in Canada.” The ACC has been “expanding its international footprint” in recent years and has 2026 games scheduled in Dublin (North Carolina-TCU) and Rio de Janeiro (NC State-Virginia), as well as a Dublin game scheduled for 2027 (Pitt-Wisconsin) (ESPN.com, 5/7). More details -- such as “ticket information, time and broadcast schedule” -- will be announced at a later date. The game is “set to air in the U.S. on either ABC or ESPN, and will coincide with” the Canadian National Exhibition, which will run from Aug. 21-Sept. 7 in Toronto (TORONTO STAR, 5/7).
