For the second straight year, South Alabama ran up against an explosive offensive in its season-opener and came away feeling burned. The Jaguars lost 52-38 to North Texas in Major Applewhite’s debut as head coach on Saturday, allowing four touchdowns in the third quarter after leading at halftime. South Alabama (0-1) got a record-setting performance from quarterback Gio Lopez, but got too far behind in the second half to come back.
