Fort Valley State ready for homecoming atmosphere

Fort Valley, Georgia -- Regardless of what happens between the sidelines and end zones, good weather on homecoming means at least the fans have a quality day. Fort Valley State hopes to add to that with an upset win Saturday when the Wildcats host SIAC leader Stillman on homecoming at Wildcat Stadium.

Almost as many fans will remain outside the stadium during the game for the socializing that will be inside watching to see if the Wildcats can break a three-game losing streak and finally turn a close game into a win.

FVSU has lost games by one, three and five points, and the other losses have been to a pair of FCS teams and a Division II power. “The schedule, the schedule’s been tough, man,” FVSU senior linebacker Bernard Goodrum said. “It was tough.”

Key injuries early on in one of the most ambitious SIAC schedules in years have left the Wildcats reeling, frustrated at being close but unable to come up with the late-game big play.
