Or giveaway any type of black shirts if you want to do a black out considering that’s not our color.

We did a lot of giveaways in Legion field, why not Protective to help fill it up?!

Unless things change radically, I'm wearing a particularly dark green UAB shirt.

Screw that nonsense.

I got a bad feeling about this game.

I wrote up some opinions with some statistics and PVP matchups but removed it.

Just here to say, I got a bad feeling about this game.

I'm hoping we keep improving and do a bang up job recruiting for next year and beyond.

I have zero expectations abut this game. Just looking for improvement.

Don’t know if you all heard yesterday, but it was confirmed that Jacobs is out for the season with an ACL injury.

For what’s supposedly a deep RB room. Will be interesting to see if Beebe keeps getting touches over the other 3. If so we need to recruit another 2-3 RBs in this class. Skull and Battle will be done after this year and then you can’t count on Jacobs making a full recovery.

Whoever the retard is that keeps convincing guys like Darrin Reaves, Spencer Brown, and Dewayne McBride to leave early needs to be convinced to find a new profession.

I still question Brigham’s recruiting. Brown and Deebo were handpicked by Clark. Skull was handpicked by Vincent. The rest of the room has been pretty average over the years. Picking up Battle pretty much sealed my thoughts on Brighams recruiting.

Was really excited about Jacobs. Wanted him to start as RB1 at some point this season.

although I hate that Jacobs is out, it might be best for this year's team and next years. Here's my reasoning - Skull has been much better getting more touches and getting into somewhat of a rhythm. as for next year, it keeps Jacobs around another year or two and gets Beebe and whitherspoon some valuable reps this year. Throw Curry in the mix too. I think our RB room is solid. Skull deserves these reps this year too.

Skull is finally being used how he should’ve been, in space like a scat back. Just sucks that we dont have much of any run blocking by the Oline so he can run North and south for a track meet instead of having to run an obstacle course to get a few yards.

Yes. I will be wearing green. Black is reserved for Morehead State.

I got a black hoodie that I will wear over my green UAB shirt. I will try to be a team player. I don’t particularly like black as it reminds me of the black arm band that I used to wear after Watts and the BOT killed football.

I'll probably wear my black UAB Basketball shirt into the stadium. Green outside.

UAB Marketing Dept.

I have a working theory that UAB plays much better in morning/afternoon games because that's when coach Dilfer said they practiced. UAB came out ready to play against Tulane & USF because they were the earliest kickoffs.

This is dumb, and poorly done.

Let's be honest, there won't be enough people there for it to even matter or show up in the stands as a "black out."

The "insert-color-here out" games are dumb to begin with. When you make it to where you have to BUY the shirt you are supposed to wear at the freaking bookstore, that is just asinine.

I'll wear green as I always do when I go to games.

I sit on the east side. Black is not in my wardrobe when sitting in the noontime sun

Wearing black at midday in a stadium nowhere close to full makes about as much sense as trying to do a white-out on the road.

Y’all are rebels. Much like I don’t participate in blazer thunder.

I also don’t get loud when asked at the games.

That’s Ok. Neither does anybody else in the stadium.

Go Blazers!

He ain’t wrong. Our fans are so lackadaisical. This includes basketball. At some point we need to man up or shut up.
