UAB Preview
Quarterback Jalen Kitna has completed 69% of his throws for 1,776 yards, 10 touchdowns, and 4 interceptions. Kitna targets Iverson Hooks most often (41 receptions, 560 yards, 5 TDs) with Corri Milliner (268 yards, 3 TDs) and Brandon Hawkins Jr. (255 yards, 1 TD) rounding out the passing game. On the ground, Jevon Jackson leads with 442 yards and 3 TDs, and Solomon Beebe has (216 yards, 5 TDs, long 81). Pass protection has struggled at times (14 sacks allowed for 83 lost yards).
Defensively, Devin Hightower paces the team with 47 tackles. Chris Burge has 2.5 sacks, and Pierre Royster has made 2 interceptions. UAB has given up plenty of points in the red zone, but over the last two games has held its own against opposing offenses. Kicker Jonah Delange is 6-for-9 on field goals (5-for-6 from 40–49).
UConn Preview
Quarterback Joe Fagnano is producing at a high clip: 1,918 yards, 15 touchdowns, 0 interceptions, with a 68% completion rate. Skyler Bell headlines the receivers (58 catches, 687 yards, 7 TDs) with John Neider (254 yards, 1 TD) and Reymello Murphy (228 yards, 3 TDs) stretching the field. The running game is steady behind Cam Edwards (694 yards, 7 TDs, 6.1 per carry). That balance has kept third downs manageable and opened play-action passes by Fagnano to his many talented receivers.
On defense, linebacker Bryun Parham leads with 61 tackles and 8.5 sacks, giving UConn a solid pass-rush. Tyquan King has 3 sacks. Special teams have been strong: Chris Freeman is 12-for-13 on field goals and perfect on extra points.
UAB at UConn Prediction
UConn’s passing accuracy and Edwards’ running on early downs give the Huskies the ability to make sustained drives. UAB’s offense can answer UConn, especially if Hooks gets open over the middle, but Fagnano’s mistake-free passing and UConn’s pass rush will make it too tough for UAB to keep pace for four quarters. Final Score Prediction: UConn Huskies win and cover ATS 35–20.
