HARRISONBURG, Va. (JMU Athletics) – James Madison’s Homecoming matchup against Georgia State will kick off at noon ET, on Saturday, Oct. 17, at Bridgeforth Stadium and be aired live on ESPNU, the Sun Belt Conference announced on Monday.
The Dukes are 5-0 all time against the Panthers, including 3-0 at home. Last season, JMU earned a 14-7 victory over Georgia State on Oct. 4, 2025, in Atlanta.
A limited number of tickets for the game are still available, and fans are asked to Wear Purple for the conference clash. Tickets are available at JMUTickets.com.
In anticipation of a larger Homecoming crowd, tailgating lots will open at 7 a.m., on game day. This decision was made in the interest of fans having a longer time to tailgate and celebrate with alumni coming home and to also emphasize fans entering the stadium in time for kickoff.
