Eagle Nation, get your True Blue towels ready because an action packed weekend beginning April 12-14 awaits Georgia Southern Athletics.
The annual Blue White spring football game will highlight the weekend, but baseball, softball, men’s tennis, and men’s soccer will also be competing at home.
The football team will kick things off at 1 p.m. that Saturday at Allen E. Paulson Stadium. Fans are encouraged to wear 1980’s style clothing because a film crew will be getting shots of the crowd for the new Erk Russell movie.
