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

Friend that's here watching the game (not a UAB fan): "LSU looks good, are they the best team in the nation?"
Other friend here: "No, UAB is the worst team in the nation."

Smh. The perception of UAB is that we are a joke.

Have to keep the guys focused toward that - CUSA...

This is the way it is every year. CUSA always sucks out of conference and we suck in conference. Why will this year be different.

Well now with that attitude you're the one about to walk into the moderation buzzsaw

The future at running back looks great!

I think(and hope) it'll be different this year because the focus all off season has been winning the CUSA Championship - not beating Troy, LSU, and Vanderbilt.

BTW, I REALLY like Jordan Howard...

A QB sneak there would have been better. Folks on the LSU side of the point spread were gettin nervous...

Good yardage by Howard. Would have liked to have seen him get a TD.

4th and 1 from the 5...stopped. a TD there would have gotten us back to a winner in Vegas

Geez. I wish we could have finished that drive.

That's not a new development. We been a joke in football for going on a decade. Hiring Neal Callaway was the official kick off to this era and we show few signs of a break out.

It would be nice if UAB put a product on the field that countered that perception.

Perception is reality in this case...

I hope you realize we're playing one of the top teams in the nation. LSU is no joke....are we bad or do they just make us look bad. The team we played last week beat some team by 63 points and I dare say if we played the same team we would have too. It's all about matchups.

long run up the middle and LSU out to the 25

For the love of everything guys it is LSU. I would have liked to have been competitive today, but our immediate goal is to get competitive in our own conference.

Well, that about went like I thought it would. LSU is really good. UAB has gone in a different direction than lsu the past 13 years.

Well, since you can't pay players, and Troy can manage to do it in the middle of a cow pasture, we should be able to do better than we do.

Note that I'm not flipping out and melting down after this game, it went as expected. This was LSU, not Troy

LSU is very good. UAB is very bad. We will have our hands full in two weeks to avoid an 0-3 start.

Man we couldn't block and we made up for it by not tackling!
