Lions to celebrate “Final Season at Braly” with decade recognitions in 2025

FLORENCE, Ala. (September 3, 2025) – On Wednesday, the University of North Alabama Department of Athletics announced promotions and game sponsors for all five home football games this season. Kickoff times were announced in July.
 
This will be the final season that UNA plays at Braly Municipal Stadium, which has been home to the Lions since 1949.
 
This season, UNA will celebrate the “Final Season at Braly” by recognizing an era of UNA football for select games. In doing so, the UNA football team will wear five different helmet decals to represent each era while inviting members of those teams to a special pre-game tailgate one hour prior to kickoff.
 
The recognition includes former football student-athletes, coaches, staff members and spirit squad members. More information will become available after registration.
