Syracuse, Wake Forest meet in ACC Toronto game 2027

Syracuse and Wake Forest will open their 2027 football season with an ACC game at Toronto's BMO Field, announced by the conference and ESPN Events.

The game will take place either August 28 or 29, 2027, and will be broadcast nationally on ABC or ESPN. This marks the first NCAA college football game to be played at BMO Field, which is home to the CFL's Toronto Argonauts, MLS's Toronto FC, and the Canadian national soccer teams. The stadium is also set to host matches during this summer's FIFA World Cup.

For the ACC teams, this international game will count as one of Wake Forest's home ACC games. The Toronto location is approximately four hours from Syracuse's campus in New York. The matchup represents the latest in the conference's initiative to play international games, following this fall's schedule which includes North Carolina and TCU in Dublin, Ireland, and N.C. State facing Virginia in Rio de Janeiro. cricket-ipl.co.za
