FLORENCE, Alabama---Tuskegee came up short in its first ever appearance in the Division II playoffs, falling 30-27 to North Alabama in the first-round at Braly Municipal Stadium Saturday. But it wasn't for a lack of chances.
Down three after a 38-yard field goal by kicker Trevor Wylie with 2:06 to play in the third, the sixth-seeded Golden Tigers had three possessions in the fourth, all three-and-outs as it went down to the No. 3 Lions.
Tuskegee (8-3) held the ball for 13:51 in the third but held it for only 4:18 in the fourth quarter when it failed to produce any points.
"In the second half we just needed to come out and execute," Tuskegee wide receiver Larry Cobb said. "If we do that, it's a different story right now."
It wound up being a story of what could've been.
