Little Smaug earned some Blazer street cred early. She was there.

What a nightmare.

That was my very first UAB game, and I stayed until the end. I decided that I couldn't get any wetter than I already was.

I was at that game. Very sad. That usf team looked like a second rate high school JV squad. Their jerseys looked like they bought them on clearance from Kmart.

And UAB made them look like an NFL franchise by the conclusion of the game.

Latest computer guidance for Saturday now has a high of 89 and a 58% chance of showers/thunderstorms.

Weather.com is currently showing 80% chance of rain.

Hope they're doing some wet ball drills this week.

James Spann's current forecast:

Quote:UAB opens with a home game against Troy at Legion Field in Birmingham (11:00 a.m. CT kickoff)… mostly sunny with 86 degrees at kickoff, rising into the upper 80s by the fourth quarter. A passing shower or thunderstorm is possible during the game.

NWS forecast:

Quote:Saturday. Showers and thunderstorms likely, mainly after 1pm. Cloudy, with a high near 86. Chance of precipitation is 70%.

Who cares?

It's football!

If you're not there, we won't miss you.

We promise!

Sincerely,

The Blazers
