Georgia Southern Outlook

The Eagles experienced a whiplash of a bounce back last week against Arkansas State, exploding for 500 yards rushing and a season-high 59 points in their first conference win of the season.

This week will be a better gauge as to whether Georgia Southern has turned a corner on the offensive side of the ball or whether ASU’s porous defense simply made the Eagles look better than they actually are.
