The Troy Trojans at South Alabama Jaguars football game has been rescheduled for Saturday, Dec. 12, both schools have announced.
South Alabama postponed the game against Troy due to “…precautionary measures concerning the availability of student-athletes.” The two schools were scheduled to meet on Saturday, Oct. 3 at South Alabama’s Hancock Whitney Stadium in Mobile, Ala.
If other games are canceled during the season that opens an earlier date for the two teams to play, the schools will “…explore the option of meeting earlier.”

South Alabama is 1-2 so far this season following a win at Southern Miss and home losses to Tulane and UAB. Their next scheduled contest is on Saturday, Oct. 17 at home against the Texas State Bobcats.
