Florida Atlantic’s football team (5-1, 4-1 C-USA) is heading on the road to take on non-conference opponent Georgia Southern (6-4). This will be the first time the schools will face off against each other.
The game was originally scheduled for Sept. 19 but had to be postponed due to the number of positive COVID-19 cases on the FAU football team.
Georgia Southern is a difficult place for non-conference opponents to play. The Eagles have won 26 straight non-conference home games with their last loss coming back in 2006 when they lost in overtime to Central Arkansas.
