If you love amazing rushing attacks, this is for you. Citadel leads the FCS in rushing with its option style, averaging 438 yards per game rolling up 535 yards and eight scores against Davidson in a blowout, and coming up with 341 yards and three scores in the win over Western Carolina. One of the nation’s best all-around teams, it’s going to give Georgia Southern all it can handle.
The Eagles overcame a disappointing loss to West Virginia to start the season with 413 rushing yards and five touchdowns in a surprising bombing of Western Michigan. Now the offense gets back quarterback Kevin Ellison from a two game suspension, and now things might to do an even bigger level with Idaho up next.
Over 1,000 yards rushing? It’ll be a massive disappointment if there’s anything less. Georgia Southern will be just a bit more effective, but it’s going to be a fun, wild ground game shootout.
Final Score: Georgia Southern 34, Citadel 30, Line: No Line, o/u: No Line
