Game Preview

South Alabama will hope to put a bow on its most successful FBS season by winning a bowl game for the first time in program history.

At the end of a 10-2 season, South Alabama was selected to play in the New Orleans Bowl against Western Kentucky on Wednesday inside the Superdome.

The Jaguars had never finished a season over .500 since joining FBS in 2012. Their only two losses this year came by one point on the road against UCLA in September and by four points to rival Troy in October.
