Mark Your Calendars! The Southern Heritage Classic, one of the nation's premier HBCU Classics, will return to its historic calendar time slot, the second Saturday in September - Sept. 12, 2026, at 6 p.m. - with a rematch of last year's exciting SWAC contest featuring the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff (UAPB) and Alcorn State University.
Stay tuned for ticket information.
The Southern Heritage Classic, presented by FedEx, was founded in 1990 by Fred Jones Jr. and brings fans from across the U.S. to watch HBCU football every September at Simmons Bank Liberty Stadium in Memphis, Tenn. The greatness of the Classic rests on how it connects kindred spirits – young and old – in celebration of the beauty of cultural diversity and the richness of the city’s heritage.
