Florida State's football program is currently valued at $819 million, according to a recent piece by The Athletic. This marks a decline from the previous year's $867 million valuation, attributed to successive losing seasons and concerns surrounding the ACC's television deal. FSU ranks 20th among FBS programs, with Texas at the top, valued at $2.46 billion. The decline emphasizes the uncertainty regarding FSU's potential relocation to the Big Ten or SEC as conference affiliations become increasingly significant. FSU is set to begin its 2026 season against New Mexico State.
