UAB Stuns ULM in Rainy Comeback | Huntsville News

UAB pulled off a gritty, rain-soaked comeback win against Louisiana-Monroe, rallying from behind with a 13-0 fourth-quarter explosion to seal a 26-20 victory. Despite personal and coaching ties between the teams—including Bam McReynolds scoring a TD against his former squad and ULM’s head coach having deep roots with UAB—this was pure grit: Ryder Burton connected on key throws, Ike Esonwune snagged a clutch interception, and Rod Robinson II powered for over 100 yards. The Blazers overcame penalties and turnovers to tighten their defense in the second half, proving they can rise when it matters most. Now, they turn their focus to a road test against Louisiana next week. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
