Tennessee State falls to Alabama A&M in eighth consecutive defeat

Tennessee State dropped to 0-3 on the season following a 30-3 loss to Alabama A&M on September 12 in Huntsville. The Tigers struggled offensively, totaling 251 yards on 71 plays while committing three turnovers. Quarterback Daylin Lee threw two interceptions and lost a fumble, which the Bulldogs converted into points. Alabama A&M quarterback Cornelious Brown IV capitalized on the miscues, including a 61-yard touchdown pass to Jarel Williams that broke the game open. Coach Reggie Barlow cited poor tackling and a lack of scoring in the red zone as primary contributors to the team's poor performance. The loss extends Tennessee State's overall losing streak to eight games dating back to the 2025 season. The Tigers look to end the slide when they visit Florida A&M on September 19.
