Welcome to Allen E. Paulson Stadium in Statesboro, Georgia, where UAB hopes to break its four-game losing streak in Week 2 against Georgia Southern. The Blazers are a 6.5-point underdog for the 5 p.m. CT kickoff in the game that will air on ESPN+.

UAB is 1-5 in the second week of the season since returning to the field and head coach Trent Dilfer looks to buck that trend in his first away game. The Blazers expect a volatile atmosphere on the return trip after taking a 35-21 win over Georgia Southern last season in Birmingham.
