STATESBORO, Ga. – The Georgia Southern Athletics Department and the Sun Belt Conference announced Tuesday the Eagles' 2018 football schedule, one that includes six home games for the first time since 2015, a three-time College Football Playoff participant, at least two nationally televised games and six contests against teams that played in bowl games last year. It will be the first full season at the helm of the program for new head coach Chad Lunsford, who was named the full-time head coach prior to the 2017 season finale.
"This is a great schedule and is one that will allow us to hopefully have some early success to build momentum," Lunsford said.
