The Georgia Southern Eagles had never been in a bowl game prior to Wednesday night, but they looked like seasoned veterans in terms of playing postseason college football as they took on the Bowling Green Falcons in the 2015 GoDaddy Bowl. Even with starting quarterback Kevin Ellison being forced to leave the game with an injury, the Eagles were phenomenal in their efforts on Wednesday night.
The start of the first half had the looks of a game that was going to be all about Matt Johnson and Bowling Green. The nation’s leading passer was making big plays early on and helped the Falcons jump out to an early lead.
