ATLANTA -- After capping 2023 with a dominating bowl victory, the Georgia State football program looks ahead to 2024 with the announcement of the Panthers' Sun Belt Conference opponents for next season.

All dates for the 2024 Sun Belt Conference schedule will be announced on or before March 1, but per today's announcement, Georgia State will face Arkansas State and Texas State from the West Division, along with East Division foes Appalachian State, Coastal Carolina, Georgia Southern, James Madison, Marshall and Old Dominion.

Georgia State will host home games at Center Parc Stadium against Arkansas State, Coastal Carolina, Georgia Southern and Old Dominion while traveling to App State, James Madison, Marshall and Texas State in 2024.

Georgia State's four non-conference dates are already set. The Panthers open the 2024 season at Georgia Tech on Saturday, Aug. 31, facing their Atlanta neighbor for the first time.
