Although the entire 2018-19 schedule has not been completely set, the Georgia Southern Basketball team knows of at least one more opponent they will face off against in late November, the Arizona Wildcats.
As first reported by the Tucson Star, the Wildcats are playing Georgia Southern in replacement of their originally scheduled game against Texas Southern. When it was first released, the overall difficulty of Arizona’s non conference schedule was brought into question, so the school decided to replace Texas Southern with the Eagles, who are ranked 69 spots higher than the Tigers, in hopes to improve their strength of schedule.
