MONTGOMERY, AL -- A familiar conference rivalry takes center stage Tuesday night as the Jaguars travel to face Alabama State in a 6 p.m. tip-off with important implications for league positioning.

Southern enters the match-up carrying confidence built on history, holding a 30–17 advantage in the all-time series. The Jaguars have traditionally used disciplined defense and efficient scoring to control the match-up, and they will look to establish tempo early to quiet the home crowd. Consistency on both ends of the floor will be a focal point as Southern aims to extend its series lead and continue its push through conference play.

Alabama State, on the other hand, sees Tuesday night as an opportunity to shift momentum. The Hornets will rely on energy, defensive pressure, and execution in transition to challenge a Southern team that has often had the upper hand. Protecting home court and responding to Southern's physicality will be critical if Alabama State hopes to close the gap in the rivalry.

With pride, history, and conference standings all in play, fans can expect a competitive and hard-fought contest from start to finish. The game will be streamed live on the Hornets Sports Network, with coverage beginning ahead of the 6 p.m. start.
