UAB<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Blazers were surprising winners against Troy last week, taking the game by a single point by scoring with no time left on the clock.\u00a0 This was a welcome change of fortune given they lost by the same single point to Florida Atlantic to open the season despite outgaining them by almost 100 yards.\u00a0 In between they were humbled by SMU in a game that wasn\u2019t as close as its 28-7 final score.\u00a0 This UAB team is not very good.<\/p>\n

During last week\u2019s win it look slike UAB may have found itself a new QB.\u00a0 Starting the season with David Isabelle running their attack they were looking for a clone of Joe Webb.\u00a0 Isabelle ran for over 200 yards in the opener but after failing to move the offense against Troy was replaced by Bryan Ellis.\u00a0 Ellis may not be much of a threat running but all he did was throw for over 400 yards in his first start.\u00a0 Changing offensive philosophies midstream is never a good idea but you have to give yourself a chance to win and Ellis can do that flinging the ball around.<\/p>\n

UAB has to score because their defense is atrocious.\u00a0 They gave up 566 yards to Troy and are ranked 103 in the nation in yards allowed.\u00a0 They lost to Tennessee two years ago, giving up 548 yards in the process but need to hold them to closer half of that to give their offense a real chance of putting enough points on the board to win.\u00a0 Some C-USA squads can really hang with the big boys but UAB is stuggling with teams from the Sun Belt.\u00a0 <\/p>\n

A team from the SEC, even a bad one, should whip them pretty good. \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Tennessee<\/strong><\/p>\n

All offseason Vols fans were eager to see the season start so they could put an end to all the Lane Kiffin craziness.\u00a0 Now that they are 1-2, including two home losses, the mood is low in Knoxville.\u00a0 Full disclosure no one expected this Tennessee team to hang with Oregon or Florida…but I think they were holding out hope that something positive would come out of these games.\u00a0 The only thing we really learned is that Florida just ain\u2019t right this year.<\/p>\n

The Vols better grab a victory this weekend because looking at their schedule, the next best chance for a win is when they take a break from the SEC to play Memphis in early November.\u00a0 Over the three games the thing that stands out the most with Tennessee this year is their inability to score.\u00a0 Eliminating their 50 point game against FCS Tenn-Martin they have scored only 30 points in two games averaging about 300 yards of offense.\u00a0 They really miss Bryce Brown now that Montario Hardesty has taken his legs to the NFL.\u00a0 Tauren Poole is serviceable in the running game but against better defenses he has struggled to get it going.\u00a0 QB Matt Simms is not good enough to do it all on his own.<\/p>\n

Tennessee has won three straight against UAB but hasn\u2019t covered in any of them.\u00a0 The most recent matchup was in 2008 when the Vols won 35-3 as amazing 33 point favourites.\u00a0 This year they have far less ground to cover given their weakened status but should still have enough skill to make a mockery of UAB again…especially at home in front of 100,000+ fans.\u00a0 If they don\u2019t this lost year may be worse than expected.<\/p>\n

The Pick:<\/strong> Tennessee ain\u2019t what it used to be but the Blazers never were anything to begin with.\u00a0 The Vols should have no trouble using this game to remind fans that doomsday has not yet arrived.\u00a0 I hope this drops point or two but as long as it is below a couple of TDs I feel pretty comfortable.<\/p>\n
