Semi OT - UAB vs Marshall CUSA Championship Game
As these were the Owls last two opponents, there may be some passing interest in this game. Rice is getting some mention, for shutting out Marshall and losing to a shorthanded UAB.
13 minutes left in the 1H - UAB up 3-0. Marshall offense has generated 39 yards thus far.
And UAB connects on a 19 yd TD pass. PAT is missed. 9-0 UAB.

The Rice game must have done something to Marshall’s QB. After the 5 Owl picks in the game 2 weeks ago, Grant Wells is now 0-9 vs UAB. Looks like his confidence is shot.

I think they had a decent game vs App state (only scored 17) but other than that Marshall played no one. They should be credited for beating bad teams but it’s not like they would’ve been ranked in a normal year IMO.

Wells is 4-5 for 115 yds in the 2H. Last one is a long TD to pull Marshall within 15-13. 2 pt try fails. About 5 1/2 minutes left.

RE: Semi OT - UAB vs Marshall CUSA Championship Game
Good for UAB. Marshall got their home championship game hey whined about since 2013. It appears our 20-0 win several weeks ago wrecked their psyche the way our 2013 win did.
