2019 Georgia Southern Football Schedule Analysis
– The Eagles get a chance to go giant-slaying right away with a date at LSU. Maine should ease things up a bit before taking the option to Minnesota, but the Gophers were able to handle the Georgia Tech option offense last season. New Mexico State is an easy final non-conference game in late October.
– After playing NMSU, the Eagles have to deal with the showdown at Appalachian State just five days later on the road. There’s time off before dealing with Troy from the East, but that’s on the road, too. The Georgia State and Coastal Carolina games are at home.
– There’s a week off before starting the Sun Belt season off against Louisiana from the West, but going to Arkansas State late in the season hurts, especially as the final road battle in a run of three away dates in four games. The biggest bad break? The Eagles miss Texas State from the other division.
