Georgia football, Clemson make the call on games slated between 2029-2033
Georgia and Clemson have mutually agreed to cancel their football series scheduled for 2029 through 2033. Here are the details.
Georgia football’s four scheduled games against Clemson between 2029 and 2032 will not take place. The schools mutually decided to cancel them, as revealed by a document signed by Georgia's Josh Brooks and Clemson's Graham Neff on March 12. The games were originally planned for Clemson on September 15, 2029, and August 31, 2030, and September 4, 2032, and Clemson on September 3, 2033.
The agreement to cancel the contracts and all related provisions was signed in March. In May, Brooks suggested future games with Clemson could be hosted at a neutral site, though no final decision had been made. Brooks mentioned that Georgia and Florida State had previously canceled a home-and-home series and agreed to a neutral site game in 2028.
No specific site has been determined, but Nashville has been speculated. Meanwhile, Clemson's Neff expressed reservations about neutral site games, stating that he believes college campuses are ideal for football games. Despite their long-standing rivalry since 1897, Georgia and Clemson have not played on their campuses since a home-and-home in 2013 and 2014.
The schools canceled their home-and-home series with Louisville in 2026 and 2027, as well as with N.C. State in 2033 and 2034, citing the need to balance their conference schedule amid increasing game demands. Georgia's decision to cancel these games with Clemson also stemmed from their desire to maintain a balanced conference schedule.
