GREENSBORO, N.C. – The Guilford College football season is swiftly approaching as the Quakers have finalized their 2024 slate of games recently, as announced by the Guilford College Athletics Department on Tuesday.

Following a 2-8 season last fall, GC looks to build upon that mark with a similar slate of opponents entering 2024.

"We as a program are very excited for the upcoming 2024 season," Head Coach Brad Davis said. "We are going to be able to field a team with a lot more experience than what we have had the last couple of years. We are excited to open up the season with a cross-town rivalry but more importantly, to be able to give back to the Greensboro Community at large with the Soup Bowl. All-in-all, we are looking forward to a much-improved season in all aspects"

Guilford Athletics is proud to partner with HomeTown Tickets for all football ticketing this season. Links and details to follow.

As they have in each of the past three seasons, the Quakers will open their season with the 23^rd edition of the Gate City Soup Bowl against cross-town rival Greensboro College. Guilford's turn to visit this year, they will make the short trek over to Pride Field to kickoff the new season at noon on September 7^th.

Under the Appenzeller Field lights, GC will play host to Methodist University for their home-opener, matching up with the Royals for the 25^th time in the last 27 seasons. Winners of seven of the last eight head-to-head clashes, the Quakers look to avenge their 2022 defeat at the hands of MU on their home turf with a 7:00 PM start time on September 14^th.

As a part of the Old Dominion Athletic Conference (ODAC) and Southern Athletic Association (SAA) crossover series, the Quakers invite The University of the South, otherwise known as Sewanee to town on homecoming weekend for their final non-conference contest on September 21^st. Kickoff for the first showdown on record against the Tigers is set for 1:00 PM.
 
Guilford opens their conference slate out of the bye week, making the trip up to Hampden-Sydney College on October 5^th. Kickoff versus the Tigers is scheduled for 1:00 PM.

The first ODAC opponent GC will host will be a tough one as they welcome reigning conference champion Randolph-Macon College. That game will have a 1:00 PM kickoff on October 12^th. 
The Generals of Washington & Lee University will be in town to play Guilford the following week. The contest will feature an early-evening start time on October 19^th, with kickoff set for 4:00 PM.

The Quakers hit the road again, making the long venture up to Winchester, Virginia to battle Shenandoah University in what has been a thrilling matchup each of the last two seasons. GC had an upset within reach last year, leading the Hornets through three quarters before falling in their closest game scoring-wise from last season after dropping their 2022 contest by a field goal. They will look to finish the job this time around on October 26^th at noon.

In their final matchup for the foreseeable future, Guilford will host Ferrum College on November 2^nd. With a move to the Division-II level on the horizon for the Panthers beginning in 2025, the Quakers will host FC for the final time on November 2^nd at 1:00 PM.

For their final road matchup of 2024, GC makes the short jaunt up Route-29 to battle Averett University on November 9^th. The last time Guilford football made the trip to Daly Field at Frank R. Campbell Stadium, they secured their most recent ODAC victory in shutout fashion, 26-0, and they will look to repeat the feat with a 1:00 PM game time in Danville, Virginia.

The Quakers return home for their regular season finale and Senior Day contest against Bridgewater College on Hall of Fame Weekend. That game will kickoff at 3:00 PM on November 16^th.
