Georgia’s complete schedule for the 2024 football season has been released. After a glimpse became clear last week when a few games were reported by ESPN’s Chris Low, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution is the first to report the entirety of the slate with dates ahead of the SEC’s official announcement on December 13th (7:00 p.m. ET/SECN).

Georgia Football 2024 Schedule

AUG 31 – Clemson (Atlanta)
SEPT 7 – Tennessee Tech (Athens)
SEPT 14 – Kentucky (Lexington)
SEPT 21 – Bye Week
SEPT 28 – Alabama (Tuscaloosa)
OCT 5 – Auburn (Athens)
OCT 12 – Mississippi State (Athens)
OCT 19 – Texas (Austin)
OCT 26 – Bye Week
NOV 2 – Florida (Jacksonville)
NOV 9 – Ole Miss (Oxford)
NOV 16 – Tennessee (Athens)
NOV 23 – UMass (Athens)
NOV 30 – Georgia Tech (Athens)

Of course, it’s the first season of a new era in the SEC as Texas and Oklahoma join the league. Divisions also go away, and the SEC Championship Game teams will be determined instead by standings of all 16 teams. As a result, the schedule features some intriguing matchups.

First would be the opener against Clemson. The Bulldogs and Tigers go way back, and the date in Atlanta is the second neutral site meeting of the two teams in the last few years with the last coming in 2021 (Charlotte). Then there’s a pair of road games against teams in the College Football Playoffs: Alabama and Texas.

Rivalries always are going to get circled on the calendar and 2024 will be no different as the Dawgs get Auburn and Tennessee in Athens along with the traditional neutral site setting for the Georgia-Florida game in Jacksonville.

Elsewhere on the schedule, a revenge game of sorts for former five-star Brock Vandagriff who announced his transfer to Kentucky. He’ll get to take on Georgia in the first SEC game of the season for both squads at Kroger Field in Lexington.

Georgia is coming off of a 2023 season in which it Bulldogs finished 12-0 for the third straight regular season, becoming the first SEC squad to go 8-0 in league play three straight years. UGA’s league-record 29-game win streak was snapped in the SEC Championship Game against Alabama, causing the Bulldogs to drop from the top spot in the College Football Playoff rankings and ending their hopes of a potential three-peat.
