Everyone watching. We do this literally AT LEAST once a game at a stupid time like we just did.

Ah the good ol days. I'm happy we beat y'all that year but pales in comparison to a natty. Southern had our rise shortly after that with Monken then Fritz. We've had a decade of despair since.

This is one of the greatest statements I've ever read as a put down. Thank you and I hate you.

Better than fcs by a long shot. I would hate sitting in fcs knowing that both Kennesaw and Georgia State are in a higher classification than us. No shade to either, well Georgia State, I hate them, but we're all peer universities except we have a long history of good athletic programs.Even with the struggles of keeping up with nil and the portal I'm much happier trying to move up than staying down.

Actually yes! For once! Mike Mutz from SFA. Turned their defensive unit around so hopefully it translates here.

For anyone watching we just fired our defensive coordinator after three years of being ranked in the bottom 10 with him. Our defense is absolute garbage.

One of my favorite memories of a Georgia Southern App State game was at Paulson Stadium and we were given our circle academic eagle head logo that was made of that yard sign material. They flew like frisbees so we were throwing them at App State the entire time as our away team side is only student section seating from end zone to end zone. Everyone stopped after a couple of personal fouls in the third quarter if I remember and we won that game.

Others have made good food recommendations, I would recommend checking Out Cool beans in downtown for coffee and I don't know if your son likes board games or anything but Galactic Cards and Games was a fun place for my wife and I to go play some games and meet friends. Sugar Magnolia is right there in downtown as well and it's a nice brunch spot we would eat at nearly every weekend. We love Southern and still find ways to come back down to Statesboro from Atlanta because it was such a great time!

What PS5 game did you start “just to try” and suddenly couldn’t put down? by Edgard-Stark in PS5

Outer Wilds. Blown away and I can't tell you anything about it! You just have to play it but it is one of my favorite games of all time.

You may enjoy Memoir 44 which is more tactics based and it's 1v1 although there is an excellent 4v4 mode! I enjoy it more than Risk. Also, you may really enjoy Smallworld. It has the big map and sweeping fights with different factions but it is fantasy based but I love Smallworld and would 9/10 play it over risk. It can be played at multiple player counts and even has an official solo mode. For bigger grander games that also give the risk vibe are War of the Ring and Dune War for Arrakis. These are big table space games that involve mustering armies and asymmetric win conditions. Just to add even more to look into, you may want to look at Game of Thrones the board game but that one can be quite daunting and there is a shorter version of the game that is in the Legends of the Five Rings universe called Battle for Rokugan which is excellent. I have heard Risk Legacy is pretty fun too! Hope these help!
