USA Today cfb writer predicting UAB to beat Florida - usm99 - 11-17-2017 01:18 PM

and he just had to put that last sentence in there
Alabama-Birmingham will beat Florida and officially cement the 2017 season as the worst in the program’s history. Yes, worse even than the winless 1979 team, which lost three games by a single possession. It would only be fitting that this year’s UF team would pay UAB $1.5 million and then lose. If so, maybe they should hire the Blazers’ head coach?

I predicted it in my picks. Perfect storm, UF is in turmoil, UAB is playing solid ball. Bad combo for UF.

$1.5M and a win sounds like a sweet Saturday. Hopefully we pull it off.

I'm uncomfortable being expected to win football games. It's a feeling I could get used to.

That was also my prediction in the "Lines in the Sand" thread.

Isn't Florida already eye balling Kiffen?

I'd love for UAB to do it, but it would also make me even more mad we didn't win that bowl game or that game @ Florida against them.

Don't be uncomfortable, Vegas has you as double digit dogs. I picked that upset in my Underdog game as well though.
