Cardinals to take on Colonels on ESPN2

SAN ANTONIO – The University of the Incarnate Word Athletics and the Southland Conference have announced that the Week Zero match up, on August 23 at 12 p.m. CT, between UIW and the Nicholls will be broadcast on ESPN2.
 
This will be the first college football game on American soil in the 2025 season and is the first ever Southland Conference contest to be featured on a national linear television network. The match up comes with much excitement as the last two SLC titles and automatic bids to the FCS Playoff have been claimed by UIW (2024) and Nicholls (2023).
