Georgia Southern forward Coye Simmons, right, saves the ball inbounds to teammate Jake Allsmiller during the last minute of the Eagles 54-52 victory at Hanner Fieldhouse Tuesday.
Perhaps it was playing on a national stage televised by ESPN2, or maybe it was the atmosphere of a Sun Belt Conference rivalry matchup.

Whatever the case might have been, Georgia Southern seemed to find the energy it lacked just four days prior in a much-needed 54-52 win over Georgia State.
