==History==
Georgia Southern and Georgia State have only competed against each other in football since 2014. They played annually in basketball from the 1971–72 to 1980–81 seasons, 1995–96 and 1996–97, and 2009–10 to 2013–14 out-of-conference and as conference mates from the 1985–86 to 1991–92 seasons in the Trans America Athletic Conference (which is now the [[ASUN Conference]]) and since the 2014–15 season in the [[Sun Belt Conference]].<ref name="note3"/><ref name="basketball series">''[https://admin.xosn.com/pdf9/4200206.pdf Georgia State 2015–16 Men's Basketball]'', p. 153.</ref> Starting in December 2009, the two teams went nearly 10 years without losing a home game to their rival. The streak was snapped on March 9, 2019 when Georgia State won in Statesboro by a score of 90–85. Georgia Southern has a 38–26 lead in the all-time basketball series.<ref name="note3.1">{{cite web|date= November 29, 2020| title=Men's Basketball History vs Georgia State University from Feb 19, 1972 - Mar 11, 2020|publisher=[[Georgia Southern University]]| url=https://gseagles.com/sports/mens-basketball/opponent-history/georgia-state-university/31|access-date=November 29, 2020}}</ref>

Because both schools can be abbreviated GSU, a point of conflict between the two is the claim by either fan base that their university is, in fact, "the real GSU." Georgia State lays claim to the initials as it became a university (and therefore GSU) in 1969 while Georgia Southern didn't achieve university status until 1990.<ref>{{cite web|title=Becoming a University|url=http://100.gsu.edu/|work=Making History|publisher=Georgia State University|access-date=July 2, 2013}}</ref> Both schools are referred to as GSU colloquially in their region of the state, though Georgia State is the only one of the two that officially brands itself "GSU." In 2014, when Georgia Southern joined the Sun Belt Conference (the conference Georgia State joined the year prior), Georgia Southern updated its branding and media guidelines to explicitly state the school should be referred to as "Georgia Southern" or "GS" to avoid confusion in the media. But fixtures on their campus such as the "GSU" hedge and traditions like the marching band's "GSU Scramble" remain.

The rivalry intensified after the hire of former [[Appalachian State Mountaineers|Appalachian State]] ([[Appalachian State–Georgia Southern football rivalry|longtime rival of Georgia Southern]]) athletic director Charlie Cobb to the same position at Georgia State University. During Georgia State's press release introducing Cobb, he revealed that Georgia Southern's athletic director Tom Kleinlein told him "welcome, now the war is on."<ref>{{cite news|last1=Roberson|first1=Doug|title=Q&A with new Georgia State AD Charlie Cobb|url=http://www.ajc.com/news/sports/college/qa-with-new-georgia-state-ad-charlie-cobb/ng4dL/|access-date=August 20, 2014|agency=The Atlanta Journal-Constitution|publisher=Cox Media Group}}</ref> The two teams first met on the gridiron during the 2014 football season. During the run up to the game, fans from both teams expressed their dislike for the other over social media outlets such as [[Twitter]]. Students at the time used the hashtags  "SouthernNotState" and "StateNotSouthern" in their tweets to differentiate which GSU they attended. Both schools adopted the phrases as a slogan that defined their side of the rivalry.<ref>{{cite news|last1=Roberson|first1=Doug|title=Sounds like Georgia State and Georgia Southern have a rivalry|url=http://www.ajc.com/news/sports/college/sounds-like-georgia-state-and-georgia-southern-hav/nhq66/|access-date=October 26, 2014|agency=The Atlanta Journal-Constitution|publisher=Cox Media Group|date=October 26, 2014}}</ref> During the period before the game, a beat writer for ''[[The Atlanta Journal-Constitution]]'' dubbed the matchup as "Modern Day Hate," a play on the rivalry between [[Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets|Georgia Tech]] and [[Georgia Bulldogs and Lady Bulldogs|UGA]], [[Clean, Old-Fashioned Hate]].<ref name="Cox Media Group"/>{{dead|date=March 2021}} Georgia Southern beat Georgia State by a final score of 69–31 in the Georgia Dome in front of 28,427 fans.<ref>{{cite web|title=Georgia Southern vs Georgia State (Oct 25, 2014)|url=http://www.georgiastatesports.com/downloads2/943003.htm?DB_LANG=C&DB_OEM_ID=12700|website=Georgia State Sports|publisher=Georgia State Athletics|access-date=October 26, 2014}}</ref> After the game, Georgia Southern fans unrolled a banner saying "Paulson Stadium North" claiming the stadium as their own and cementing the rivalry. The following season, Georgia State handed Georgia Southern their worst home defeat in school history with a final score of 34–7.<ref>{{cite news|last1=Brown|first1=Mike|title=Georgia State rolls to victory in Statesboro|url=http://www.macon.com/sports/college/article48228405.html|access-date=December 5, 2015|publisher=The Telegraph (Macon)|date=December 5, 2015}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|last1=Roberson|first1=Doug|title=Georgia State dominates Georgia Southern|url=http://www.ajc.com/news/sports/college/georgia-state-dominates-georgia-southern/npc2L/|website=AJC|publisher=Cox Media Group|access-date=9 December 2015}}</ref> Georgia State leads the football series 6–4.

In 2024, the schools announced the intent to stop calling the football game "Modern Day Hate" alongside a partnership with Georgia Grown to rename the rivalry the Georgia Grown Bowl.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Young |first=Natasha |date=September 19, 2024 |title=State and Southern will go head to head in first Georgia Grown Bowl |url=https://www.wsav.com/sports/state-and-southern-will-go-head-to-head-in-first-georgia-grown-bowl/ |access-date=September 19, 2024 |website=WSAV News }}{{Dead link|date=October 2024 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref> The two schools will begin competing for the Commissioner's Cup trophy.

==Rivalry series==
On October 1, 2015, both schools' athletic directors at the time announced the beginning of an annual "rivalry series" in which the winner takes home the Rivalry Series trophy and bragging rights at the following year's football game. The trophy was awarded to the school that defeats the other in a points-based system that encompasses all sports. Most wins counted as 1 point with football counting as 2 points. 2 points total were awarded to community service projects, and 1 to the school with the highest departmental GPA. <ref>{{cite news|last1=Roberson|first1=Doug|title=Georgia State and Georgia Southern add trophy to rivalry|url=http://georgiastatesports.blog.ajc.com/2015/10/01/georgia-state-and-georgia-southern-add-trophy-to-rivalry/|access-date=October 2, 2015|agency=The Atlanta Journal-Constitution|publisher=Cox Media Group|date=October 1, 2015|archive-date=October 2, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151002053022/http://georgiastatesports.blog.ajc.com/2015/10/01/georgia-state-and-georgia-southern-add-trophy-to-rivalry/|url-status=dead}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|last1=Holmes|first1=Mike|title=Georgia State-Georgia Southern Rivalry Series Announced|url=http://www.georgiastatesports.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=12700&ATCLID=210382396|access-date=December 10, 2015|publisher=Georgia State Athletics|date=October 1, 2015}}</ref>

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Sun Belt Conference announced that all remaining spring sporting events after March 16 of that year would be suspended. Those sports included Men's and Women's Tennis, Men's and Women's Golf, Baseball, Softball, and Women's Outdoor Track and Field. 
Georgia Southern was leading 9–6 in the 2019–2020 rivalry series at that time.<ref>{{cite news|title=2019-20 Georgia Southern - Georgia State Rivalry Series|url=https://gseagles.com/sports/2018/5/1/2019-20-georgia-southern-georgia-state-rivalry-series.aspx|access-date=October 13, 2022|publisher=Georgia Southern Athletics}}</ref>
