Jaguars Fall Short in Heartbreaker | Huntsville News

South Alabama’s gritty road effort fell short as they lost a heartbreaker to Tulane 28-24, despite outgaining the Green Wave in yards and controlling the clock. A costly fumble—later negated by a slide call—and a subsequent punt handed Tulane the ball with under five minutes left. Quarterback Kadin Semonza capped the comeback with a touchdown pass to Destyn Hill with just over a minute remaining, extending Tulane’s winning streak against South Alabama to four straight games. Coach Major Applewhite called it a wake-up call, demanding better execution and clutch finishes. QB Bishop Davenport shined with 296 yards and two TDs, while Brendan Jenkins led the receivers with nine catches for 119 yards and a score. Tulane’s Jaylin Lucas was unstoppable on the ground, rushing for 214 yards and an 80-yard TD. The Jaguars now return home to face Ohio next Saturday at 6 PM on ESPN+.
