CobbFC09 KENNESAW, Ga. – With the Kennesaw State football season moving to the spring, head coach Brian Bohannon announced two non-conference home games on Thursday, including the season opener on Feb. 27. The Owls are set to open the spring 2021 season on Saturday, Feb. 27, hosting Shorter University at Fifth Third Bank Stadium. It will be the second meeting between the two programs after Kennesaw State knocked off the Hawks 18-10 during its inaugural season in 2015. KSU has also signed a deal to bring first-year FCS program Dixie State to town on March 20, 2021, with a return trip to St. George, Utah scheduled during the 2025 season. Dixie State is transitioning from NCAA Division II, playing their inaugural Division I FCS season this spring. KSUowls.com I was quite surprised to find out Dixie State was located in Utah.
onefansopinion A terrible D2 program (Shorter) and a first year FCS program (Dixie State) to start the home schedule this winter/spring. It certainly insures there will be no problem meeting social distancing protocols by fans in the stands.
