This is an important week for the Jaguars. Southern has a new coach, defensive coordinator Dawson Odums who takes over for fired Stump Mitchell. The Jaguars (0-2) play at Jackson State in the "True Blue" game on Saturday. A victory would be just what Southern needs to turn things around and salvage its season. Online Sports Editor Pierce W. Huff and Southern beat writer Mike McCall talk about the challenges the Jaguars face.
