STATESBORO, Ga. - Georgia Southern Director of Athletics Tom Kleinlein announced Thursday the addition of the University of Mississippi to the Eagles' future football schedule. GS and Ole Miss will meet on Sept. 12, 2020 in Oxford, Mississippi.
The Eagles and Rebels played last season with Ole Miss holding on late for a 37-27 win.
The Eagles are no strangers to SEC teams having played 12 games against current members with future games against Auburn (2017), LSU (2019) and Arkansas (2021) on the docket. After having played Georgia in 2015 and Ole Miss in 2016, the addition of this Ole Miss game means the Eagles will have an SEC opponent on their schedule six times over a seven-year span going through 2021.
