The Atlantic Coast Conference announced game times for three 2017 Georgia Tech football games today, including the mid-October date at Miami, on Wednesday.

The Yellow Jackets will take on Miami at 8 p.m. Oct. 12, and the game will be televised on ESPN. The Hurricanes have given Georgia Tech trouble in recent years, as Miami has won seven of the past eight meetings, averaging more than 33 points per game while holding Tech to 21. The Yellow Jackets’ only win in those years came in 2014, when they went to the ACC Championship Game. Last year, Miami won 35-21 in Atlanta.

In addition to the Miami game, Georgia Tech is set to host Jacksonville State at 12:30 p.m. Sept. 9 and will be televised on the Regional Sports Network. The Yellow Jackets will travel to the University of Central Florida at 7:30 p.m. Sept. 16 on ESPNews.

Georgia Tech will kick off its season at 8 p.m. on Sept. 4 when the Jackets play Tennessee at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on ESPN.
