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.
