It is getting rarer that we are called A-B. During all of the national coverage about football, we have been called UAB for the most part. Basketball is almost always called UAB, with a few exceptions. I think it is a war we are winning.

I don't like it when they call us Birmingham. We are UAB.

I liked the write up. The author obviously knew what he was talking about. I'm a lot more scared about this game now that I read that.
