The 2017 Georgia Southern football schedule has been released.

The schedule features a trip to Auburn in the season opener on September 2 and a nationally televised (ESPN2) conference opener at Paulson Stadium against Arkansas State on Wednesday, Oct. 4.

In addition to the Auburn game, the Eagles will travel to Bloomington, Indiana on Sept. 23 for a matchup with the Indiana Hoosiers.

The Georgia State game will be at Paulson Stadium on Nov. 4, and the Appalachian State matchup is set to be played in Boone, N.C. on Thursday, Nov. 9 and broadcast on ESPNU.
