Week two brings some massive early season matchups, including Emory & Henry and #17 Lenoir-Rhyne.

SAC Week 1 PreviewThere was some excellent football last weekend, and some games.....maybe not so much. Should be some really good games this week, as a couple of schools dive into conference play already.

Friday night begins the 50th season of SAC football, with an absolute banger to kick things off. I love these elite early season matchups and seeing two of the best programs in our region over the past decade start things off down in gorgeous Pensacola, Florida is awesome.

One of the big storylines going into the 2024 SAC football season was about three quarters of the programs in the conference had new head coaches. Only one change took place this year, but the story heading into the South Atlantic Conference's 50th season of competition is about new faces replacing big name players that made waves across the league and overall landscape.

In an update to a story published in mid-April, Limestone University has confirmed that it will cease operation at the end of the Spring, 2025 semester. From WSPA News in South Carolina:

Last weekend was one of the best opening rounds of D2 football playoff action I’ve seen since my freshman year at Carson-Newman in 2007. As I shared on social media, the average margin of victory was just 8.8 points (would’ve been 5.5 if you took out the beatdown Harding laid on Pittsburg State).
November 22nd, 2024 12:00pm
It’s playoff time in D2 Football! There are three outstanding matchups in our super region this weekend, and several others across the country.
November 15th, 2024 12:00pm
The final week of the regular season is here. It's fantastic in many ways because we have championship games being played and the playoff bracket being released Sunday.

Week 10 is already here, which means it is the last week of divisional play in the SAC football season. This week will feature some big rivalry matchups, and almost every game has either conference championships or D2 playoff ramifications.
November 1st, 2024 5:00pm
There are just three weeks left of the regular season, and it is getting a little bit tight in the divisional races. But November football is when the boys turn into men in college football, and we shall see who is ready to make that final push.

We are just days away from the first regional ranking release of the 2024 D2 season and that is both wonderful and sad all at the same time. It means we are that close to playoff football…it also means we are that close to the season being over already.
October 18th, 2024 8:00am
SAC Week 6 saw a lot of heart pumping action, as four of the six games were decided by one score. I expect some very good matchups this week as well, as we inch closer and closer to playoff time.
October 11th, 2024 8:00am
Hard to believe we are already at the halfway point of the season and are already talking about playoffs. It’s the beginning of divisional play in the SAC this weekend, which means the rivalries heat up and the games get even more intense and crucial.

We are already in week five of the 2024 season, nearing the halfway mark. There were a couple of scheduling changes made this week, and I imagine there will be some more down the line as many areas within the league were terribly affected by hurricane Helene.
September 26th, 2024 1:00pm
Week three and opening weekend in the SAC brought some outstanding football and gives week four something to live up to. More important than football, as week four gets ready to kick off, is the severe weather hitting the southeastern US right now from Hurricane Helene.
September 20th, 2024 1:33pm
The non-conference part of the schedule is now over, and we finally get into cross-divisional play in the SAC. I’m excited for some old SAC rivalries being renewed for the first time since 2021 this week, such as two of the founding members of the conference in Lenoir-Rhyne and Mars Hill.
September 11th, 2024 2:00pm
Everybody has a game under their belts now, but we still don't know much about some of the SAC schools here in 2024. It's also nearly impossible to know how good a team is going to be two weeks into the season....well....unless you've watched defending national champion Harding already.
September 4th, 2024 2:00pm
Opening weekend gave us some fireworks in the SAC, but unfortunately three of the four games were blowouts. Delta State led 10-7 at half before the Statesmen exploded in the 2nd half, winning by 31 at Mars Hill.

Week 0 is here and while there are just four games on the South Atlantic Conference slate this week heading into Labor Day weekend, all four have potential to be excellent appetizers for the weeks ahead. Three of the four matchups are first ever meetings, while one is an in-state rivalry between teams looking to make a big leap in 2024.
