Looks like Tulane will replace Grambling in Mobile to open South Alabama's new football stadium on Sept 12th

South Alabama will return to Tulane in 2023 and 2026. Tulane was scheduled to visit Mobile in 2025

Good for Tulane and South Alabama. The smaller programs always bitch but never help each other out. It just makes sense for G5’s in close proximity to play each other

Just read about this... will be called Hancock Whitney Stadium. Interesting as I thought their two biggest markets were LA and MS. Looks like a nice stadium... 25K capacity.

and there is this too...


quote:

The south end zone terrace of South Alabama’s Hancock Whitney Stadium has a brand new name courtesy fo a new business agreement with Budweiser-Busch Distributing Co. South Alabama announced a $1 million gift from the beer company on Monday and announced the south end zone terrace will be named the Michelob Ultra Terrace.

“We are excited to continue our partnership with the local company that was the first to commit to supporting the Jaguar football program over a decade ago,” University of South Alabama President Dr. Tony Waldrop said in a released statement. “We are looking forward to seeing the excitement and game day atmosphere the Michelob Ultra Terrace will provide in 2020 and beyond after the new Hancock Whitney Stadium opens.”

The south end zone terrace will include walk-up drink wells near field level with the emphasis on creating a unique social gathering point to meet others and enjoy the game form a unique perspective. When the stadium is not being used for football purposes, the terrace will be able to convert into a staging area for events such as concerts and more as South Alabama looks to maximize the potential use of their football stadium.

So drink up, responsibly, South Alabama fans. The suds will be pouring for you in the south end zone at the next home game.

First of all, I’m glad to see this happen. I hope all goes well.
But man, it’s strange to see Tulane where they are now. I remember 50 years ago+ they played in an 80,000 seat stadium and had health attendance. Now, 25-30,000 seat stadiums and struggle to fill them.

Eh. This is a great year to play the away leg since nobody's going to be at the games to begin with.

The program's status is currently in the middling range (50s to 80s). If they can stay there and steal a good season here and there it will be a good place for them.

Tulane now has an 11 game schedule (8 conference + 3 nonconf). Hearing they might also add Southern Miss.
