THIS GAME WILL DETERMINE
It's a league game. So, it's crucial for both squads. UAB is a game behind Florida International, Marshall and Middle Tennessee in the conference's league standings. So, to fall behind any further would be extremely detrimental to the Blazers hopes at a conference crown. A loss for UNT, could knock the Mean Green out of contention for second place in the western division.

He's coming off his best performance as a passer, having thrown for 205 yards and three touchdowns 18-for-passing while being picked off in a 49-24 loss at Indiana. He's also had runs of 55 and 19 yards this season.
