Eastern Michigan University opens its 2026 football season this Saturday at Rynearson Stadium by hosting Sacramento State in a historic matchup marking the Hornets' FBS and Mid-American Conference debut. The Eagles will look to bounce back from last year's 4-8 campaign by testing their defense against a transfer-heavy Sacramento State team adjusting to a new coaching staff.
