Georgia Southern didn’t have too much trouble stopping Savannah State in the season opener last Saturday at Paulson Stadium. The Eagles held Savannah State to one offensive touchdown and only 183 total yards. Most impressively, perhaps, was that SSU gained only 21 yards on the ground on 19 carries — a stat that doesn’t much surprise GSU co-defensive coordinator Kevin Corlesss.
St. Francis hopes to keep GSU defense off balance Saturday
