CEDAR CITY, Utah-Southern Utah football commences the 2018 season Saturday by hosting North Alabama at Eccles Coliseum.
Over the course of the past three seasons, the Thunderbirds sport a 14-2 (.875) record at home.
The Thunderbirds are also part of history Saturday as their opponent, the North Alabama Lions, a traditional Division II power, are playing their first game at the Division I level.
Under Demario Warren, who became the Thunderbirds’ head coach in 2015, SUU has won two Big Sky Conference titles in his three seasons and has amassed a record of 23-12 (.657).
Last February, Warren signed a contract extension which will keep him at Cedar City through 2022.
