South Alabama Hosts Navy Friday at Ladd-Peebles; Game-Day Shuttle Moves to Lipscomb Field

South Alabama hosts Navy at 2 p.m. Friday at Ladd-Peebles Stadium, and fans using the game-day shuttle will board at Lipscomb Field on Michael Boulevard instead of Bel Air Mall.

MOBILE, Ala. — South Alabama will host Navy in a football game at Ladd-Peebles Stadium on Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, with kickoff scheduled for 2 p.m.

Fans planning to use the game-day shuttle service should note a change in pickup location for the matchup.

Shuttle Changes

The shuttle will operate from Lipscomb Field on Michael Boulevard rather than from Bel Air Mall. Service is scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. and will continue until 90 minutes after the game ends.

About the Matchup

The Jaguars, who compete in the Sun Belt Conference, are coached by Joey Jones, the only head coach in the program’s history. South Alabama has played its home games at Ladd-Peebles Stadium since the program began play in 2009.

Navy competes as an independent in football. The holiday-weekend game brings the Midshipmen to Mobile for a nonconference meeting with the Jaguars.
