The Sun Belt should add Eastern Kentucky and Stephen F. Austin in 2025 so that these games can be on Thanksgiving weekend:
Appalachian State-Coastal Carolina
Arkansas State-Southern Miss
Eastern Kentucky-Marshall
Georgia Southern-Georgia State
James Madison-Old Dominion
Louisiana-ULM
South Alabama-Troy
Stephen F. Austin-Texas State
You’ve made this comment about a dozen times. Move on please. The Sun Belt is not listening.
Just ignore Z-Man I like deal that Georgia Southern Georgia State play on Thanksgiving weekend however I am 114% satisfied with Eastern Kentucky & Stephen F. Austin still in FCS.
I just knew once I saw this article was posted, that Z-Man was going to comment that.
But we don’t know, is how many of these games he wants at night.
I want every conference to have the same games played every Thanksgiving weekend, for the most part.
You also can’t forget adding more teams, so we can drop down to 7 conference games. And every game In November must be played at night. Lol!
Go Georgia Southern Eagles!!!
Good News Z-Man As a Georgia Southern Fan would like to see them play cross state rival Georgia State on Thanksgiving Weekend.
Sorry to criticize you Z-Man do not expect your wish of Football Conference having same Thanksgiving games to come true & I will smile even if things I wish for that do not come true.
Jeff B. your comments are fantastic I only wish that Z-Man would start acting like adult & be more mature instead of acting like a greedy little child.
Now now guys. Don’t make me come over there.
I am not a fan of Z-Man However I do care for him & I wish he would enjoy College Football instead of dismantling it.
Ga State and Ga Southern were paired together on Thanksgiving weekend a few years back
However, the Eagles didn’t want to play the Panthers that weekend, they want to end the regular season with App State who became a rival of theirs from the SoCon days.
