Summary
- Marshall Faulk takes over as Southern coach after a 2-10 season.

- Alabama State dominated Southern 30-7 last season.
The Southern Jaguars are set to clash with the Alabama State Hornets on Saturday at Legion Field. This matchup marks a new chapter for Southern, who are looking to improve after a challenging 2-10 season in 2025. Following the difficult campaign, the team parted ways with head coach Terrence Graves and have appointed former NFL MVP Marshall Faulk as their new head coach.
In contrast, Alabama State enters the season with significant momentum. The Hornets achieved a strong 10-2 record last year, going 7-1 in conference play and concluding the season with a six-game winning streak. This sets the stage for an intriguing contest, especially considering Alabama State's dominant 30-7 victory over Southern in their previous encounter last season.
