HOUSTON, Texas -- Alabama A&M wasn't able to overcome four first-half turnovers – including two inside the Texas Southern 10-yard-line – and fell to the Tigers 45-23 Saturday night at BBVA Compass Stadium in Houston.
It was the Southwestern Athletic Conference opener for the Bulldogs (0-1 SWAC, 1-3 overall). Texas Southern improves to 2-0, 4-0.
One of the turnovers came when quarterback Jaymason Lee was sacked and fumbled on the final play of the half at the Tigers' 14-yard-line. Lee also threw an interception in the endzone with the Bulldogs at the Texas Southern 3 with 4:09 left in the half. However, the Tigers were stopped on Dexter Reese's first interception of the season at the goal line. Lee also had a fumble at the Bulldogs' 9 with 2:37 left in the first quarter.
The game started badly for the Bulldogs when Brendan Johnson misplayed the opening kickoff and it was recovered by Texas Southern in the end zone for a touchdown.
