Georgia Tech Unveils 2026 Home Football Slate and $500 Million Facility Drive

Season tickets, mini‑plans and a major capital campaign set the stage for a pivotal year

Georgia Tech is gearing up for the 2026 college football season with a full slate of home games at the historic Bobby Dodd Stadium. The Yellow Jackets will welcome seven home crowds, highlighted by non‑conference showdowns against Colorado and Tennessee, while also battling ACC rivals such as Duke, Louisville and Wake Forest.

Fans can choose from a range of ticket packages designed to suit different interests and budgets. Season‑ticket holders receive an exclusive Buzz/Ramblin’ Reck bobblehead, while three‑game mini‑plans — like the White & Gold Mini Plan at $115 and the ACC Pick‑3 Mini Plan at $96 — offer built‑in discounts. Single‑game tickets start at $30, with premium Wreck Deck experiences priced at $150 for those seeking the best views.

The team’s momentum from the previous year adds extra intrigue. After finishing 2025 with a 9‑4 record and a No. 24 final national ranking — climbing as high as No. 7 at one point — the Jackets posted a 6‑2 mark in ACC play, tying for second in the 17‑team conference. They remain the only ACC program to have placed in the top four of the league standings for three consecutive seasons.

A season of ambition

Beyond the on‑field action, Georgia Tech has launched a $500 million fundraising campaign called Full Steam Ahead. The initiative aims to renovate Bobby Dodd Stadium, the Zelnak Basketball Center and the O’Keefe Gymnasium, ensuring the athletic facilities keep pace with the program’s growing ambitions.

Historically, the Yellow Jackets have enjoyed a legacy of consistency, famously appearing in all 16 polls during the 1999 season. That tradition of sustained excellence fuels the current push to blend competitive spirit with modern infrastructure, setting the tone for a season that could define the next chapter of Tech football.
