BATON ROUGE - In Southern football's first home game in over a month, the Jags lead Bethune-Cookman 31-3 at halftime behind yet another strong effort from running back Trey Holly.

At the top of the third quarter, Aiden Valdez caught a pass for an additional touchdown, followed up at the end of the quarter by Macario Dade Jr., who ran for 70 yards for the Jaguars' final touchdown of the night. 

The Jaguars defeated the Wildcats with a final score of 45-17.
