The 2023 Georgia State Panthers football team represented Georgia State University as a member of the Sun Belt Conference during the 2023 NCAA Division I FBS football season. The Panthers were led by seventh-year head coach Shawn Elliott and played their home games at Center Parc Stadium in Atlanta.

After a win against UConn on September 9, Georgia State became 2–0 for the first time since the 2019 season.[1] One week later, on October 16, the program improved to 3–0 for the first time in its history after beating Charlotte on the road, 41–25.[2] The victory against Charlotte featured the longest play in GSU program history, a 97-yard TD pass from quarterback Darren Grainger to WR Robert Lewis. Following another victory the following week at Coastal Carolina, GSU earned its first 4–0 start in program history, as well as its first vote in a national college football poll (coaches poll).

Preseason[edit]

Media poll[edit]

In the Sun Belt preseason coaches' poll, the Panthers were picked to finish in sixth place in the East division.[3]
