UAB

Post by tjtlja »

Isn't this there first year back as a program? Kicking USM's butt. I think they are on the cusp of being bowl eligible. Who is their coach and can we send our staff to see how they did it? Is it all transfers? Or is it "The Other Wilson" factor?

We play them next year btw

And their coach is the same one who had them bowl eligible right before termination. He turned down at least one job offer and he stuck around. #mensch

I'd say it depends on how this year ends. If we go 0-4 in the next four with everyone healthy (meaning the losses aren't attributed to injuries and all the involved players will still be in place next year, minus graduations), I wouldn't be surprised at all to see UAB favored over us next year.

But, that said, I don't think that will happen.
