SAVANNAH, Ga. - The Georgia Southern football team held one of its final practices before moving into game-week mode as it practiced at Memorial Stadium in Savannah Friday night. The stadium served as a return to where it all began as the team played its first official NCAA game at that site in 1984 when Allen E. Paulson Stadium was not quite yet ready.
In front of several hundred fans Friday night, the Eagles went through a spirited 80-minute practice before holding a fan fest for everyone in attendance. The practice was a light one as the Eagles were just in shells and helmets working on situations while focusing on learning periods.
