The deadline to renew Georgia Southern University football season tickets for the 2014 schedule is only a week away.

The Eagles kick off the 2014 campaign Sept. 6 vs. Savannah State and will welcome Appalachian State on Sept. 25 for their first Sun Belt Conference game, which also will be shown on ESPNU.

With the newly expanded Paulson Stadium, additional seating options are available in the new north side mid-deck, in the Bishop Club and for grass seating through the family plan. Eagle fans can renew their current seats through April 18 by visiting GSEagles.com/renewals or purchase season tickets for the first time by calling 1-800-GSU-WINS.

The Georgia Southern Athletics Ticket Office will process renewals before season tickets go on sale to the general public May 1.

Representatives of the athletics ticket office are available during regular business hours Monday-Friday, 8:30 a.m.-5 p.m. and at the April 12 Blue-White spring game to assist fans in their renewals or purchases.

Call 1-800-GSU-WINS or e-mail tickets@georgiasouthern.edu for more information or for answers to questions.
