Which Mercer Bears games are worth watching in 2026?
The defending SoCon champions face their lone FBS test on September 19 at Georgia Tech, a step up in competition after last year's 9-3 campaign and a run to the FCS Playoff second round. The October 10 home date against Western Carolina and the October 31 matchup against The Citadel anchor a home slate that includes six games at Five Star Stadium.
Mercer closes the regular season with a challenging road trip to Tennessee Tech — the Golden Eagles' first season in the SoCon — before wrapping up at home against East Tennessee State on November 21.
