UAB has been awful, but there are signs it might turn a corner soon.For a program that rose up from the ashes a few years ago to now be winless against FBS teams isn't what everyone had in mind when Trent Dilfer was hired last season, but it's a true building job happening here.The Blazers not only haven't beaten an FBS team - they started the season with a win over Alcorn State - but they have yet to come within single digits in any of the losses.Tulsa pulled off a comeback to make the season in a thrilling 46-45 win over UTSA. That was the first spark of life for the offense in a while, but with this and East Carolina to follow, there's a chance to get back into the bowl hunt before closing against at USF and Florida Atlantic.

Tulsa vs UAB: Who Will Win?

Can Tulsa replicate the magic from last week? It won't have to.UAB is WAY overdue for a little luck, but the run defense is totally awful and the offense can't overcome the problems on the other side. Teams have all but stopped throwing the ball on the Blazers because it's so easy to pound away on this bunch.Tulsa will run well from the start after two weeks of struggling on the ground, and it'll control the tempo to survive a big day from the UAB passing game.
