Just don’t know what else you can say. We had every opportunity to win the game. You have the lead with 3 minutes to go, you have to hold it. A team that knows how to win figures out how to do it. This team doesn’t know how to win, and probably deep down doesn’t EXPECT to win in situations like that.
Sadly this may have been our only chance to beat Kennesaw. It’s a “down” year for them. I assume they’ll be better next year. Us? I don’t have that same confidence.

Don’t get me wrong, our players gave their all. It was an exciting game to watch for the most part. But, yes, the outcome just continues to pour salt in a wound that’s over five years old now.

UNA Fans....just a shot note to say the Lions have nothing to be ashamed of. I'm glad the Owls pulled it out and won the game. But it could have gone in UNA's favor also. Will be pulling for the Lions to win all their remaining games. I am sure the Owls and Lions will meet again in the near future. Take care and thanks for allowing this KSU fan to post this week on your forum. Y'all were very kind and that's much appreciated.

Thanks for the thoughts ... but we've plenty to be ashamed of, and hopefully the entire coaching staff will shortly walk the plank.

KSU pulled it out at home and you have two very good QBs. Good luck to the Owls! Still in the hunt for the conference title and AQ!

Walters is a talent. Hope we can keep him happy and here. We can win a lot of games with him. We must find some lineman to give him some protection. The TD pass that gave us the lead 27-20 he didn’t have half second longer, they were pushing our lineman into him again. We have struggled with oline position for years. Glad we could pass the ball, Owls did an incredible job of stuffing Powell. He had no run lanes and usually multiple defenders hitting him in the backfield. Lacey made another special catch and pretty sure the first pass of the game was also a completion, not sure why reviews were not happening on plays for both sides? Think the Owls had a touchdown earlier that should have been reviewed, instead we end up blocking the FG try. We lost to the passing game of KSU. We simply do not play the ball well. We also do not put pressure on QB….which may have been by design with his running ability. We struggle mightily in the secondary. Linebacker 35 made quite a few tackles, seemed to tire late, which I get. Didn’t see 30 much, wondering if he is still struggling from his injury. Also 5 didn’t play much? We needed those guys on defense. Team fought hard, both teams did. KSU made the last play, got the win. Hoping this game gives our offense some hope next week against JSU. I would definitely take a loss at KSU for a win against those….well y’all fill in the blanks. KSU will have a better second half of the season. Only 4500 in attendance? Really thought they pull crowds similar to us? We got a chance to gets some wins, need to start this next Saturday. Roar Lions

If you would like to know why they have not been and will not be a coaching change , just got to the North Alabama Facebook page and see all the people defending this joke of a coaching staff and are ok with losing.

I see some critical comments on there too, to be fair. We do seem to have a large group that likes to say “aw shucks, well they tried, that’s what’s important”. I mean, I don’t blame the kids. I have said and continue to say that I’m proud that our guys have played hard these last few years, even as the losses piled up. But when is enough, enough? We have not won one game in 5 years now that you can point to as an example of the coaching staff or team improving. It’s just not happening. We either lose by getting blown out in the second half, or in close games by making critical mistakes. One’s a talent issue, the other is a coaching issue. And both are reasons we need a new staff.

That's why I no longer comment on UNA Football/Athletics posts when we lose. I've gotten into arguments over UNA Volleyball blowing it in the 1st round of the D2 Playoffs every year (Thanks, Lexie Bradley) and Bobby Champagne getting fired. Our fan base can resemble lemmings at times.

From what I'm told,this is Willis's last year.
That's just hearsay.
