🔵 SCOUTING THE OPPONENT: GEORGIA STATE

The Panthers head up to Boone for a Saturday night showdown at Kidd Brewer Stadium:

• Georgia State saw a 42-14 loss to the Mountaineers at home during the 2023 season

• Heading into battle, the Panthers' passing offense ranks fourth in the Sun Belt and 41st nationally with 257.0 yards per game

• WR Ted Hurst’s (6) is three touchdowns away from breaking the single-season touchdown record (8)

• On the defensive end, GSU ranks fourth in the conference and 44th in the nation for fumbles recovered (4)

As we approach the 2024-2025 basketball season, the excitement is palpable. Coming off a record-breaking 27-win season, which included a perfect 15-0 home record and a Sun Belt Conference regular-season championship, Coach Kerns and the team are poised for another exceptional year. Our annual Men's Basketball Tip-Off Dinner on November 1 is a cherished tradition that allows us to celebrate our past achievements and build anticipation for the upcoming season. This special night will include ESPN college basketball analyst Jimmy Dykes as our keynote speaker, the 2023-24 Sun Belt regular season championship banner reveal, and Coach Kerns’ insights and expectations for the new season.
