Regrouping after a near road win upset against Louisiana Tech, the Miners (0-7, 0-3 C-USA) will return home this week to square off against top-ranked UAB (6-1, 4-0 C-USA) on Saturday, Oct. 27.
And once again, the Miners will attempt to break their 19-game losing streak in an upset fashion versus the Blazers, who are first place in the Conference USA West division.
Last week, for the fourth straight game in the fourth quarter, the Miners were in reach with the ball against LA Tech, but were unable to score within the eight-yard line and fell to the Bulldogs 31-24.
