JACKSONVILLE, Ala. (AP) -- Jacksonville State is set to play its first home playoff game in nearly 20 years.

The Gamecocks host Wofford on Saturday in the first round of the Football Championship Subdivision playoffs. Kickoff is 11 a.m. CST.

Both teams received at-large bids.

Jacksonville State (9-2) hasn't hosted a playoff game since making the Division II field in 1992. The Gamecocks made the FCS playoffs in 2003 and 2004.

Their stadium underwent a $47 million renovation before the season.

JSU and Wofford haven't met since 1991.
