Georgia, Clemson Cancel Home-and-Home Series Set for 2029-2032
The short version
- Georgia and Clemson canceled a four-game home-and-home series scheduled for 2029-2032.
- The cancellation agreement was signed by both schools in March, per the Banner Herald's Marc Weiszer.
- A neutral-site alternative had been rumored but will not happen.
- The SEC's shift to nine conference games leaves Georgia with ten Power 4 games per year including Georgia Tech.
The two programs have mutually agreed to drop their scheduled four-game interconference series, according to a report citing the signed agreement.
Georgia and Clemson will no longer meet in the four-game home-and-home football series that had been set for 2029 through 2032, according to a report by Marc Weiszer of the Banner Herald.
Weiszer obtained the agreement, which the two schools signed in March, confirming that both sides opted out of the planned interconference matchups.
Speculation had followed that the schools might revisit the rivalry at a neutral venue, but that option is now off the table as well.
The cancellation is tied to the SEC's move to a nine-game conference schedule. With annual ACC opponent Georgia Tech already on the calendar, Georgia is assured ten Power 4 opponents each season.
The expanded playoff format, which could require as many as six postseason games to win a national championship, adds further pressure on programs to manage their regular-season slates.
