MOBILE, Ala. – University of South Alabama Director of Athletics Dr. Joel Erdmann announced on Friday that the Sun Belt Conference office has approved a change of date for the football program's final regular-season game in the fall.

The Jaguars will now play host to Arkansas State on Friday, Nov. 29, with the program's Senior Day contest set to take place at Ladd-Peebles Stadium; the kickoff time will be released at a later date.  The match-up with the Red Wolves was originally slated for Nov. 30 when the 2019 schedule was released over a month ago.

It marks the second time in the last three seasons that A-State will be the opponent for South's home finale after the Jags earned a 24-19 victory over the Red Wolves in their final outing in Mobile during the 2017 campaign.  It will also be the second year in a row that the Jaguars will wrap up the regular season at home on Friday after defeating Coastal Carolina 31-28 at Ladd-Peebles Stadium last November.
