Finally, it’s game day in Coral Gables as Miami will open the season against the UAB Blazers in what should be a fun opening matchup against a quality Group of 5 opponent. UAB has a game under their belt winning the opening 45-35 against Central Arkansas. Don’t let the final score fool you, the Blazers play good defense, but were undone by their offense’s turnovers in plus territory.
Matchup to Watch
It doesn’t get more simplistic than Miami’s offense vs UAB’s defense as the matchup to watch. The Blazers are an experienced group on that side, and Miami is breaking in an entirely new scheme.
