Rankings from AP Poll

The 2017 Georgia State Panthers football team represents Georgia State University (GSU) in the 2017 NCAA Division I FBS football season. The Panthers are led by first-year head coach Shawn Elliott. While in previous seasons the Panthers have played in the Georgia Dome, the 2017 season will be the first in which they will play in the newly acquired Georgia State Stadium, a renovated Turner Field with artificial turf and a 22,000 person capacity. The 2017 season is the Panthers' fifth in the Sun Belt Conference and seventh since starting football.

Georgia State announced its 2017 football schedule on March 1, 2017. The 2017 schedule consists of 6 home and away games in the regular season. The Panthers will host Sun Belt foes Troy, South Alabama, Appalachian State, and Idaho, and will travel to Coastal Carolina, ULM, Georgia Southern, and Texas State. Georgia State will not play two Sun Belt teams this season, Louisiana and New Mexico State.

The team will play four non–conference games, two home games against Tennessee State from the Ohio Valley Conference (OVC) and Memphis from the AAC, and two road games against Penn State from the Big Ten and Charlotte from Conference USA.
