Last game a disappointment for Webb In his final collegiate game, UAB quarterback Joe Webb did what he's done for most of the season, especially in recent weeks.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - The UAB football team rides a three-game winning streak into this weekend's final road game of the regular season at East Carolina.

Rashaud Slaughter found plenty of room to run in Saturday's lopsided win over Florida Atlantic.

Fantrell Forest Carries the ball downfield at Legion Stadium during Saturday's homecoming game against the FAU Owls.

Florida Atlantic can't stop Joe Webb and the UAB offense. The UAB defense can't stop FAU on third down.

UAB leads by 14 and -- just like last week -- has to be a bit disappointed that the margin isn't the greater.

Kickoff for today's UAB-UTEP Conference USA game at the Sun Bowl is about five hours away.

Like Marshall, Alabama-Birmingham is coming out of a road loss to a nearby BCS school, if not in the same state.

Two teams still remaining on Marshall's schedule appear to be better than advertised after big conference victories this month.

Life on the road for the UAB football team begins this weekend when the Blazers visit Oxford, Miss., for a nonconference game against Ole Miss.

The Blazers' offense is basically a one-man show built around quarterback Joe Webb, who probably runs the ball better than he throws it.

UAB tight end Zach Lankford had surgery on Wednesday to repair a torn Achilles tendon and his college football career is finished.

UAB's Joe Webb says he needs to work on better communication with his receivers, offensive line.

Hiram Atwater returned an interception 40 yards for a touchdown to seal UAB's 30-17 win over Southern Mississippi on Thursday night, the Blazers' first victory over their Conference USA rival.

Southern Miss wide receiver Tory Harrison is gang-tackled by UAB defenders Elliott McGaskin , Daniel White and Hiram Atwater early in Thursday night's game at Legion Field.

Southern Miss has won all nine games in its short Conference USA series with UAB, and it's doubtful any defeat stung the Blazers worse than last year's 70-14 beatdown in Hattiesburg.

UAB kicked off to Troy at 2:30 Saturday afternoon; unfortunately the Blazers were much later than that getting in the game.

Despite an exciting second half comeback, the Blazers ultimately fell to Southern Methodist in the final seconds of the game.

B.L. Mitchell threw for 353 yards and three touchdowns and Southern Methodist held off Alabama-Birmingham's rally to win 35-33 on Saturday.
