UAB Blazers vs. Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders Prediction
I’m on UAB here. The Blazers took the loss as a massive favorite against Alabama State, but since then it feels like that loss woke this team up. Middle Tennessee is a decent team but the Blue Raiders have struggled against some of the better mid-major teams that they’ve gone up against, and I think this is another one that they have issues with here. Give me UAB in this one.
