STATESBORO - As the end of May rolls by and the month of June rolls in, here are a few updates on Georgia Southern Football as the preseason nears.

ATHLON HONORS SIX IN PRESEASON MAGAZINE
Athlon Sports has released its preseason All-Sun Belt predictions and six Eagles have been recognized. They are:

Third-Team Offense
RB L.A. Ramsby
RB Wesley Fields
OL Jeremiah Culbreth
 
Fourth-Team Offense
C Curtis Rainey
OL Ryan Northrup
 
Fourth-Team Defense
LB Chris DeLaRosa

The magazine also released its preseason top 25 and has Auburn as its No. 9 team in the country, calling the Tigers the "biggest threat to Alabama in the SEC." The Eagles open the season at Auburn on Saturday, Sept. 2. The game time has not been announced, but away game tickets are on sale through GSEagles.com/Tickets

TWO MORE KICK TIMES ANNOUNCED
ESPN and the Sun Belt Conference announced kick times and network broadcasts for numerous contests in the season's first three weeks. While the Auburn game was not on that list, and GS already announced the New Hampshire game as a 6 p.m. kickoff on ESPN3 on Sept. 9, two other kick times for the Eagles were officially announced. Georgia Southern will take on Arkansas State on Wednesday, Oct. 4 at Paulson Stadium and that game will kick at 8 p.m. on ESPN2. The Eagles will travel to Boone, North Carolina, on Thursday, Nov. 9 to take on Appalachian State and that game will kick at 7:30 p.m. on ESPNU.

PRESEASON PRACTICE IN SAVANNAH
While details are not finalized, Georgia Southern fans in the Savannah area, as well as the entire Coastal Empire and Low Country areas, are encouraged to keep an eye for details on a very special preseason practice. Head coach Tyson Summers will be bringing the entire team to Armstrong State's campus in August for a preseason practice, along with a fan fest and autograph session. Details will be released at a later date.

CAMP SCHEDULE
Be on the lookout for the entire preseason camp schedule to be released soon. The Eagles will report in late July and take advantage of the NCAA's early start date as they prepare to take on Auburn on Sept. 2.

TICKETS
Tickets are available for purchase by going to GSEagles.com/Tickets. Season tickets and away game tickets are on sale now, but single game tickets for home games do not go on sale until Aug. 15.
