What’s Going To Happen

UAB has its one loss to the rising star WKU team, but it’s been able to roll through the weak and the sad on the schedule. The best win so far? South Alabama.

Old Dominion also lost to WKU, but it’s also had to deal with Virginia Tech, Virginia and Marshall, too. Now the Monarchs have to play their fourth road game in six dates.

They’re offensive line is a big issue – it can’t keep anyone out of the backfield – and the offense is dead last in college football averaging just 258 yards per game. But they don’t turn the ball over and the D is just good enough to keep the scuffling UAB offense from doing too much on third downs.

Don’t expect a whole lot of scoring. Again, it’s on a curve – UAB hasn’t beaten anyone who’s any good – but the Blazer D will be strong enough to overcome three turnovers from the O to survive before going off to Tennessee and Southern Miss.
