South Alabama men’s basketball hits the court for the Coastal Classic on November 12 at the Pensacola Bay Center — a venue set to host the Sun Belt Championship in 2027. It’s also their first matchup against Loyola Marymount in over 20 years, reviving a rivalry that ended in a nail-biting 81-80 win back in 2005. Coming off a strong 21-win season and their first postseason appearance since 2007, the Jaguars are riding momentum into this key tune-up. Coach Richie Riley is excited for players to experience championship-level competition and for fans to rally close to home. Game time and broadcast info are coming soon, with tickets going on sale August 28 — and special promo codes for SA fans to boost their ticket allotment.
