All eyes will be on Louisville WR Jamari Thrash, the Georgia State transfer after being selected a first-team All-Sun Belt selection in 2022 after catching 61 passes for 1,233 yards and seven touchdowns and closing the season with three straight 100-yard games.

While playing for California, Louisville's new QB Jack Plummer threw for 3,095 yards with 21 touchdowns.

Texas A&M transfer Haynes King will make his Georgia Tech quarterback debut after beating out Zach Pyron and Zach Gibson.

King threw for 1,579 yards and 10 touchdowns over 10 games, including seven starts, for the Aggies from 2020-22. A broken leg ended his 2021 season after only two games. He threw for seven touchdowns with six interceptions while completing 55.6% of his passes for 1,220 yards last season.
