TUCSON, Ariz. – With a couple of milestone victories recorded during the 2016 regular season, the University of South Alabama football program will aim for one more historic result when it returns to postseason play on Friday.
As part of the 2016 campaign, the Jaguars posted the school's first-ever victory over a Southeastern Conference opponent by opening the year with a 21-20 decision at Mississippi State. One month later, a 42-24 defeat of No. 19 San Diego State provided South with its initial win over a national-ranked opponent.
On Friday, the Jags will have an opportunity win their first postseason bowl game when they meet Air Force in the NOVA Home Loans Arizona Bowl, which will kick off at 4:30 p.
