Your Georgia Southern Eagles start the season 2-0 and help the Sunbelt have its best day ever! Wow what a freaking day! Congrats Eagles!
@samkenerson14
Eagle nation is behind you buddy!
A 25 vs. 24 bowl matchup should NEVER be held that early in bowl season… Especially not on a Friday at 3 PM! Congratulations on the big win

If the NCAA approves this waiver, there are several schools and conferences that will likely sue the NCAA for a loss of revenue due to denial of past waivers.
JMU AD Jeff Bourne says that if the NCAA allows the Dukes to be fully bowl eligible, the Sun Belt has agreed to let JMU play for the conference championship (as expected).
A lot of people are labeling this the Kyle Vantrease Revenge Bowl so let’s look at some Numbers.
5 years at Buffalo
4,755 yards Passing with 25 Touchdowns
1 year at GaSouthern
3901 yards passing with 25 touchdowns
Our Defensive Player of the Week had a HUGE game!
@marc_stampley
finished the game with 2.5 TFL including a sack as part of his game high 8 total tackles in a 40-3 win over Ball State!
Make no mistake about it. We’ve played in our biggest setting of the year already, but by no stretch of the imagination have we played our hardest team of the season. Let’s keep that blue collar GATA mentality.
I’m not saying this out of depression from losing and I know we should be thankful for every bowl invite we receive but when do we hold bowls accountable for not being thankful for passionate fan bases? That’s twice the Camellia bowl has dropped the ball. This time worse then…
Virginia's attorney general, a JMU graduate, has written NCAA President Charlie Baker and the Division I Board of Directors urging the association to make the Dukes bowl-eligible this season.
@JMUFootball
Thank to the JMU fans that came down this weekend. Everyone I had interactions with were super friendly and positive.Also really appreciate roughly 75 percent of JMU fans standing up and applauding with Eagle Nation as we honored Erk Russell and his family during a tv timeout.

All week I’ve watched YouTubers and game breakdown people call this a body bag game for Nebraska. Only thing leaving in a bag is that 1.4 million heading back to the Boro!

Something I haven’t seen much talk about during or after the game is the discipline shown the other night. We only had 3 penalties all night long. Last year we only had one game with less than 4 penalties. Hopefully this is a sign of a new culture and Eagles not beating Eagles.
I arrived later than normal to the game and as I was walking up I watched Freedom have a standoff with police. Last thing he said before being detained was “Not in my freaking house!!!!!”

Eagles (4-1, 1-0) take on Dukes (5-0, 2-0)! Make it happen!

Georgia Southern snags it’s second commit of the 2023 Class. The explosive receiver out of Rabun has cheat code stat lines. Over 1800 receiving yards puts him top three in the Nation……. Huge grab for Helton, Davis and crew! Welcome to something special Jaden!

Georgia Southern lands it’s first commitment of the 23 class. The Rivals rated 3⭐️ corner decides to stay in Georgia after picking up offers from Middle Tennessee, UCF, and Others. Mr Cobbs may only be the first of 23 but you can tell Helton and crew are building something great!
Love my Eagles and we are still building in the right direction. Definitely not happy with the results today. This is definitely the best team we’ve played so far and will likely play this year. They are the Kings of the East and reigning East champions for a reason. Regroup and
Looks like I've found two new establishments to quit supporting. It's real simple this is Statesboro not Athens go open up a coffee shop and wine bar there if you don't want to support the local University that's responsible for your very existence. Common sense isn't common
Rumor has it that there is still a line at gate 8 trying to get into the game. Man oh man are they going to be upset when they get in and have to wait 45 min to get a water.
Georgia Southern lands another transfer this time on the Defensive side of the ball. To many awards to mention with this one out of Mars Hills. LB room just got a bit more physical! Welcome and GATA!

Example A of what not to do on a Transferring Student Athletes post. Not acceptable if it’s your school or somebody else school. Makes the entire fanbase look like idiots, even though I know most of JMUs fans aren’t this clueless.
We’re thankful for many things today but mainly our supporters and our Seniors.
