ATLANTA -- The Georgia State football team opened preseason camp Tuesday to begin preparations for the 2023 season, which kicks off on Thursday, Aug. 31, when the Panthers host Rhode Island at 7 p.m. at Center Parc Stadium.
"It's a thrilling day to be back on that practice field and preparing for another season," head coach Shawn Elliott said after Tuesday morning's workout at Center Parc Stadium. "I think everybody wanted to back out there, together as a team, a lot sooner than we actually could have."
Now in his seventh season at the helm, Elliott says his squad enters the season with a renewed commitment to toughness as the Panthers look to bounce back from last year's 4-8 campaign and and regain what they had attained the previous three seasons and four of the last six years with winning records and bowl berths.
