After three games on the road, James Madison is heading back home. They will take on the South Alabama Jaguars at 12:00 p.m. ET on Saturday. James Madison is currently enjoying a perfect season, with four straight wins to start things off.

James Madison relied on the efforts of Reggie Brown, who picked up 160 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and Jordan McCloud, who threw for 364 yards and four touchdowns, and also rushed for 26 yards and two touchdowns. Brown's biggest highlight was a 74-yard reception that he brought in for a touchdown in the fourth quarter.
