TROY – Troy and UAB will renew its football rivalry with a two-game series in 2028 and 2029, both schools announced Friday. The Trojans and Blazers met every year from 2009 until 2014 before UAB disbanded its program for two years.
“This a great series for both our football program and our fans,” Director of Athletics Brent Jones said. “We make it a priority to schedule competitive home-and-home regional series against our peer conferences to make it as easy as possible for our amazing fans to watch their Trojans on the road.
"Additionally, Birmingham is an important market for our program as we’ve done a great job recruiting top players from the area over the past few years.
