UAB at Arkansas
(NCAAF) Blazers (UAB) vs. Razorbacks (ARK),
Point Spread: -22.00 | -110.00 Razorbacks (ARK) (Home)
Result: Loss
Let's just say the jury remains out for UAB after its unorthodox hire of HC Trent Dilfer straight from the Tennessee high school ranks last year. Before last week, we though it almost impossible for UL-Monroe to win a game by a 32-6 scoreline...until it faced Dilffer's Blazer, which qualifies as a bright red flag at UAB. Big problems establishing anything on the ground vs. the Sun Belt Warhawks suggests more problems might be at the offing vs. an SEC defense that kept Oklahoma State Heisman candidate Ollie Gordon mostly in check last week at Stillwater. Meanwhile, the Porkers' 70-0 win over outmatched UA-Pine Bluff in the opener two weeks ago suggests Sam Pittman is not about to play Mr. Nice Guy this season with his job on the line, and new o c Bobby Petrino will be more than glad to help the Razorbacks run up scores when the can. So far so good for new QB Taylen Green, in from Boise State, who has accounted for nearly 800 yards of offense in two weeks. Play Arkansas
