ATHENS, Ga. \u2014<\/strong> The 2025 Georgia Football schedule has been released, and Bulldog fans are getting a treat with the home slate. Already knowing the opponents, dates for conference games were announced Wednesday night during a special edition of SEC Now.<\/p>\n

After opening the season with a couple of home contests, SEC play begins for the Bulldogs on the road with a road trip to Rocky Top to take on Tennessee in Week 3 (September 13th). It\u2019s the earliest that game has been played since 1995, having taken place in November each of the past four seasons.<\/p>\n

After an early bye week, Georgia hosts Alabama for its SEC home opener in Week 5 (September 27th). Both teams will have off dates before that, as was the case in 2024 as well. The two teams have played seven times since Kirby Smart took over as the head coach at his alma mater. This will be the first of them to be played in Athens.<\/p>\n

The calendar turns to October with three more games and another bye for Georgia. Twice will the Bulldogs be between the hedges with Kentucky (Week 6 \u2013 October 4th) and Ole Miss (Week 8 \u2013 October 18th) coming to the Classic City sandwiching a road trip to Auburn for the Deep South\u2019s Oldest Rivalry in Week 7 (October 11th). A bye week closes the month out before the World\u2019s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party in Jacksonville to open November.<\/p>\n

As has become tradition, both Georgia and Florida are coming off of rest for their neutral site matchup. In 2025, it counts as a \u201croad\u201d game for the Bulldogs, helping out their total at Sanford Stadium. That\u2019ll take place November 1st in Jacksonville before another game away from home as Georgia travels to Mississippi State November 8th.<\/p>\n

To close out the SEC slate is a big one: Georgia\u2019s SEC Championship Game rematch against Texas on November 15th in Athens. It\u2019s the first trip to the Classic City for the Longhorns and a chance at revenge \u2013 assuming the two teams don\u2019t meet in the College Football Playoffs \u2013 for two losses handed to Steve Sarkisian\u2019s squad in 2024.<\/p>\n

Georgia fans can also mark their calendars for four non-conference games against Marshall (August 30th \u2013 Athens), Austin Peay (September 6th \u2013 Athens), Charlotte (November 22nd \u2013 Athens) and Georgia Tech (November 29th \u2013 Atlanta). That rivalry game against the Yellow Jackets, the 119th meeting of Clean, Old-Fashioned Hate, will take place at Mercedes-Benz Stadium<\/a>, home of the Atlanta Falcons, after an agreement between Tech and AMB Sports and Entertainment that pays its athletics department a guaranteed $10 million.<\/p>\n

Of course the 2024 season isn\u2019t over the Dawgs. Seeded second in the College Football Playoffs, Georgia earned a first-round bye and will play the winner of Notre Dame-Indiana in the Allstate Sugar Bowl and CFP quarterfinals New Year\u2019s Day in New Orleans (8:45 p.m. ET, ABC\/ESPN).<\/p>\n
