No Surprise: Georgia Tech's 2024 Schedule Ranked as the Toughest in the ACC

Georgia Tech will face Georgia, Notre Dame, Miami, NC State, Louisville, and Florida State next season

Stop me if you have heard this before, but Georgia Tech is going to have one of the nation's toughest schedules in the country next year and the toughest in the ACC. 

This is an annual occurrence for the Yellow Jackets, but it is going to happen again and they are not even playing Clemson. 

247Sports Analyst Brad Crawford ranked the 15 toughest schedules in the country for the 2024 season and the only ACC team in it was Georgia Tech. He ranked the 

Here is what Crawford had to say about the Yellow Jacket's schedule: 

"The only ACC team in our toughest schedules ranking, Georgia Tech has a difficult road ahead. Dates for all conference games for the Yellow Jackets will be revealed later this month, but what we do know is Georgia Tech won't miss any of the projected contenders in the conference and have to play nationally-ranked Notre Dame and Georgia, too."

The teams that were ranked ahead of Georgia Tech were UCLA, Arkansas, South Carolina, Oklahoma, and Florida.

It is no doubt going to be a tough schedule for the Yellow Jackets. Georgia, Notre Dame, Miami, Florida State, NC State, and Louisville are all likely to start the season ranked next year. Throw in games against improved teams like Virginia Tech and Syracuse and Brent Key's team will have their work cut out for them. 

But they are used to this. 

Key has had his team ready to be the underdog more than once. They were big underdogs last season against Miami and North Carolina and against the Tar Heels and Pitt the year before. Georgia Tech is going to have one of the top offenses in the conference next year and Key has made some strong hires on the defensive side of the football, where Georgia Tech was the weakest last year. If there is enough improvement on that side of the ball and the offense does not regress, Haynes King and the rest of the Yellow Jackets can navigate this schedule.
