ATLANTA — Georgia State football announced its 2026 non-conference schedule Tuesday,
The 2026 Non-conference schedule features a mix of home contests, in-state competition and a road test against a Big 12 opponent.
The Panthers will open non-conference play on Saturday, Sept. 5 at Center Parc Credit Union Stadium against North Carolina A&T, marking the first time the two programs have ever met on the gridiron.
Following the home opener against NCA&T, the Panthers hit the road the following week for a matchup at Kennesaw State. While this contest marks game one for the home-and-home series, a deal finalized in early 2025, this game marks the second time the two teams have met in program history.
