American college football season
The 2024 Georgia State Panthers football team will represent Georgia State University in the Sun Belt Conference's East Division during the 2024 NCAA Division I FBS football season. The Panthers will be led by a new head coach, Dell McGee,[1] who inherits a strong 2024 recruiting class from his predecessor, Shawn Elliott, including McGee's son Austin McGee, Damaine Wilson of Florida, and Indiana tight end Lane Wadle.[2] The Panthers will play home games at the Center Parc Stadium, located in Atlanta, Georgia.
In the Sun Belt preseason coaches' poll, the Panthers were picked to finish in last place in the East division.[3]
