MONTGOMERY, AL (WTVB) – Eastern Michigan University’s football team has stepped out of the shadows cast by the neighboring University of Michigan and four professional teams just down the road in the Motor City.
The Eagles (7-5) will face Georgia Southern (9-3) in the Camellia Bowl on Saturday, earning a spot in postseason play for the second time in three years and just the third time since the school started playing major college football in the mid-1970s.
