Georgia Tech, Tennessee to play 2017 Chick-fil-A Kick Off

One of the premier non-conference match ups in all of college football happens to take place in Atlanta, Georgia at the Chick-fil-A Kick Off Game.

The contest will take place on Monday, September 4, 2017, and bring to a close the opening weekend of the 2017 college football campaign. Monday, it was announced that the game will pit the Tennessee Volunteers against the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets. It will be the second ACC-SEC matchup with major College Football Playoff implications with Florida State and Alabama squaring off just two days prior.

“This will be the renewing of a long and beloved rivalry that’s been off the board for far too long,” said Percy Vaughn, Peach Bowl, Inc.
