2019 UAB Blazers Football Schedule Analysis

– The Blazers aren’t exactly extending themselves early on in the non-conference schedule. They have to go to Tennessee in the first weekend of November – and after an off week – but they start out against Alabama State, at Akron, get a week off, and get South Alabama. They need to start 3-0.

– The big games in the West come at the very end of the season. They go to Southern Miss, get a relative break against UTEP, and then close against Louisiana Tech and go to North Texas. If they roll through November, they’re going back to the Conference USA title game.

– UAB misses just about everyone good from the East. There’s no Florida Atlantic, no FIU, no Marshall and no Middle Tennessee. Getting Old Dominion and going to WKU in interdivisional play is a nice break.
