Before we dive into the week one slate and week zero recap, we want to send all our thoughts, prayers, positive vibes, etc. to the family and friends of William Jewell football player MicahJo Barnett, along to the entire Cardinals’

There’s a different feel around the South Atlantic Conference heading into 2026: A new conference commissioner (shoutout Lindsey Babcock and welcome to the party), a new era of postseason selection with the NPI, plenty of coaching and roster movement, and a schedule loaded with intriguing matchups make this one of the most difficult seasons to predict in recent memory.

We are barely over a week from the kickoff of the 2026 SAC football season, and I for one am ready. If there is one thing we can count on entering another South Atlantic Conference football season, it is that things will change.

Rivalry week is here, as is the last week of the 2025 regular season. The end of the season is like opening your next to last Christmas present:

Hard to believe it, but there are just two weeks left in the 2025 SAC regular season. This year has been one of the top to bottom most competitive I can remember in 18 years of following the league, with eight programs winning at least three conference games and four recently listed in the NCAA’s regional rankings.

Happy Halloween to all who partake! Should be a scary lineup this weekend with LOADS on the line in the SAC.

Week seven is already upon us. Conference title races are tightening like pants after Thanksgiving lunch, playoff races molding into shape, and some teams are looking to 2026 already.

The last weekend of September, and the SAC schedule takes a slight detour back into non-conference play for a few schools. D3 power Mary Hardin-Baylor heads to The Hill to take on Coach Barnette and the Mars Hill Lions.

Crazy how fast the season is already going by. Week three is here, and some teams are already fighting for their playoff lives.

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.

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.

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.
