NEW ORLEANS — The Sun Belt Conference announced the cross-divisional opponents for the 2023 football season on Thursday. The Sun Belt is coming off a 2022 campaign in which it defeated four autonomy five programs, hosted ESPN’s College GameDay for the second time in conference history and produced a conference-record seven Bowl Season participants. Each of the conference’s 14 programs plays one home game and one away game against a cross-divisional foe each season—and will play every team in the opposite division at least once every four years. In addition to the two cross-divisional matchups, Sun Belt members play six divisional games annually, fostering regional rivalries amongst divisional foes. This divisional and regional model led to a number of record-setting crowds during the 2022 campaign—the Sun Belt’s first as a 14-member football conference. The complete 2023 Sun Belt football schedule, including play dates, will be released by no later than March 1, 2023. SUN BELT EAST DIVISIONApp Statevs. Southern Missat ULMCoastal Carolinavs. Texas Stateat Arkansas StateGeorgia Southernvs. ULMat Texas StateGeorgia Statevs. Troyat LouisianaJames Madisonvs. South Alabamaat TroyMarshallvs. Arkansas Stateat South AlabamaOld Dominionvs. Louisianaat Southern MissSUN BELT WEST DIVISIONArkansas Statevs. Coastal Carolinaat MarshallLouisianavs. Georgia Stateat Old DominionULMvs. App Stateat Georgia SouthernSouth Alabamavs. Marshallat James MadisonSouthern Missvs. Old Dominionat App StateTexas Statevs. Georgia Southernat Coastal CarolinaTroyvs. James Madisonat Georgia State
