Army Preview
Army’s offense has centered on quarterback Dewayne Coleman, who has thrown for 266 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions while also leading the ground game with 268 rushing yards and three scores. Brady Anderson provides a deep threat with 167 yards and two touchdowns on five catches. The Black Knights’ lone win came on the road at Kansas State, but they’ve since dropped games to North Texas and East Carolina, scoring just six points last week.
The defensive unit has not generated enough disruption, with only one sack through four games. Linebacker Andon Thomas leads with 42 tackles, while safety Gavin Shields owns that single sack. Giving up 30 or more points in three contests highlights how much improvement is needed, particularly against a UAB team capable of striking through the air and on the ground.
UAB Preview
UAB has shown offensive promise despite inconsistency. Quarterback Jalen Kitna has been sharp, completing 72 percent of his passes for 1,256 yards, eight touchdowns, and only three picks. Receiver Corri Milliner leads with 268 yards and three touchdowns, while Jevon Jackson has rushed for 280 yards and three scores. That balance gives the Blazers the ability to challenge Army in multiple ways.

Defensively, UAB has had lapses, especially in losses to Navy and Tennessee, but Chris Burge has stood out with 2.5 sacks. Safety Pierre Royster adds 29 tackles to steady the secondary. This group will look to load the box against Coleman, forcing Army into passing situations where turnovers become more likely.
Army vs UAB Prediction and Best Bets
UAB’s offensive balance and quarterback play tilt this matchup. Army has struggled to score and create pressure, which sets up well for the Blazers at home. Expect Kitna to control the game through the air while Jackson provides enough ground support to keep the chains moving.
Final Score Prediction: UAB 34, Army 20
