BATON ROUGE, Louisiana  --  The American Athletic Conference announced the Aug. 30 season opener between Houston and Southern will be a 7:30 p.m. kickoff at Reliant Stadium in Houston.

The conference, which is comprised of the remaining institutions of the Big East, also announced the game will air live on ESPN3.com

Fans will also be able to watch the game via the Watch ESPN Mobile App.

Southern's season-opener marks the second time in the series history the two programs will meet. Under former Houston head coach and current Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin, the Cougars handed Southern and head coach Pete Richardson a 55-3 loss in Robertson Stadium on Aug. 30, 2008.


Head football coach Dawson Odums will open his inaugural fall camp July 31 at Southern University when players are scheduled to report to the A.W. Mumford Fieldhouse.

The Jaguars will conduct its first practice of fall camp Aug. 1 at 4:30 p.m.
