The Georgia Bulldogs football program represents the University of Georgia in the sport of American football. The Bulldogs compete in the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) and the Southeastern Conference (SEC). They play their home games at historic Sanford Stadium on the university's Athens, Georgia, campus.

Georgia claims four national championships, including three (1980, 2021, 2022) from the major wire-services: AP Poll and/or Coaches' Poll. The Bulldogs' other accomplishments include 18 conference championships, of which 16 are SEC championships, second-most in conference history, and appearances in 64 bowl games, second-most all-time. The program has also produced two Heisman Trophy winners, five number-one National Football League (NFL) draft picks, and many winners of other national awards. At 25, Georgia has the longest active streak among colleges in consecutive years having at least one former player on a Super Bowl roster. In addition to its storied history, the team is known for its unique traditions and rabid fan base, known as the "Bulldog Nation." Georgia has won over 900 games in its history, placing them 9th all-time in wins and has finished in the Top 10 of the AP Poll 30 times, 15 of which were Top 5 finishes.
