The Georgia Bulldogs are looking to win a third consecutive national championship during the 2023 college football season. Georgia’s 2023 football schedule sets the Bulldogs up well for another College Football Playoff appearance.
Georgia’s toughest game is at Tennessee. Beyond that, it is hard to find a potential loss for the Bulldogs during the regular season. Georgia will be heavily favored in almost every regular season game it plays in.
Georgia’s slow opening schedule will give the Bulldogs and head coach Kirby Smart time to decide if Brock Vandagriff or Carson Beck is the best fit to start at quarterback. Additionally, this will be the SEC’s final season before Oklahoma and Texas join the conference and alter the structure of the SEC schedule.
What is Georgia’s 2023 football schedule and how are the Bulldogs’ opponents ranked (per ESPN’s Football Power Index)?
