Jaguars trying to stay out of heat, simulate night season-opener
South Alabama has switched up the schedule for its second scrimmage of the preseason, opting to go under the lights at Hancock Whitney Stadium.
South Alabama ran 110-plus plays in its first scrimmage, which took place inside the Jaguar Training Center. The Jaguars’ offense appeared to have the edge for most of the day, which the defensive players on the team took a little personally. “First and foremost, you’ve got a lot of guys back that have played a lot of snaps around here,” Steele said. “And then just taking over the mentality of being a run first-team — physicality, playing with our pads, knocking people off the ball. That style of play is who we want to be and what we preach every day.”• Wommack said he was thrilled at the news that former South Alabama head coach Joey Jones will belater this year.
Jones went 52-50 in nine years as South Alabama’s head coach, starting the program from scratch in 2009. Now director of player personnel at Mississippi State, he is part of a four-person Hall of Fame class that will be inducted on Saturday, Oct. 28, the day the Jaguars host Louisiana. “I think we’ve taken a step forward there,” Wommack said. “And that was something that in our self-scout and off-season studies, we saw, here was a team that was fourth in the country in rushing defense, but typically has always been top 25 in sacks and , and we were way off that mark.
“Personally, I’ve got to win the one-on-ones,” Higdon said. “I’m also working into more of an every-down kind of guy. As a group, just we want to come dominate. We didn’t like how we came out and started our first scrimmage and we kind of wan to control the run on the perimeter too, not just inside the box. And we want to be more dominant and be the group that everyone notices.”
