The unofficial online home for fans of the UAB Blazers. Part of Collegiate Sports Nation (CSN).

KenPom.com has #10th ranked UNC favored over #237th ranked UAB by 22 points.

Pomeroy only has UAB favored in six more games this season, and four of them are by three points or less.

IF we can show improvement, I am holding out hope we can contend for a good seed for the conference tourney. Unfortunately it will take much improved play (12-6 in conference) to pull out a winning record going into the postseason.

Wish someone had connection to UNC students to get FreeUAB or fire watts chant going while on TV!

#237!?



If you thought LAST year's game was an upset, OHHH MAN!!

Going to be really ugly...

Might get ugly but then again it wasn't that ugly against Florida or even UCLA. Granted UNC may be a better team but every game is different.

Probability of a UAB victory today is 3%.

Final score last year: UAB 63 - UNC 59. Halftime score: UAB 37 - UNC 25.

Number of points scored by UAB players on this year's squad against UNC last year - 10.

C.J. had 6 points and Watts had 4.

Frazier had 25 and Rucker had 11.

Number of points scored by UNC players still on this year's team - 51.

Imponderable complications for today's game:
Fellow men's program cancelled causing anxiety over
conference future causing anxiety over
what happens next to the men's BB program if
a new conference may be needed so
the coach(es) may leave leading to
a possible need to consider transferring to some new school.

To what extent has BBHC Haase been able to insulate his team from all these anxiety generating variables as they prepare for this TV game -- and the balance of the season?

When Haase calls a timeout in the first four minutes you know it's bad. 11-2 Heels

Would 4-9 be the worst start in program history?

107.7 not working for me.

Why do we have two game threads going? Is this the thread?

Why not? I'm patiently waiting for the UK game to finish. 8.4 to go.

Finally UP ON espn2

3:00 PM | UAB at North Carolina | ESPN2 | Link1 | Link2

Officials calling EVERYTHING!

8 minutes in, NC has taken 15 shots. UAB has taken 6

And only made 1 of 7!

Washington wide open under the basket, misses the layup badly. He should stick to shooting threes. He doesn't look as silly missing those.
