Preview the Week 3 college football Georgia Southern Eagles vs. South Carolina State Bulldogs game with stats, game information and how to watch links.

Tune-up game: The Gamecocks committed 13 penalties in their first loss of the season last week. Two of those came at the cost of pick-sixes by USC’s defense, which would’ve won the game. Akron is a perfect opportunity for South Carolina to get right heading into its first of two bye weeks.

For the third time this season, the Akron football team will be receiving a massive check to play a non-conference football game. The Zips (1-2) visit South Carolina on Saturday night, a 580-mile journey that they will be greatly compensated for.
