They brought in two experienced tackles through the transfer portal in DJ Jones and JD Morgan. Pairing them with returning guards Quez Yates and Zaire Flournoy.
UAB’s starting edge duo made some noise as well. Senior edge rusher Kendall Johnson was credited with three tackles and made his way around an Alcorn State lineman to hit Tyler Macon, forcing a fumble in the first quarter, and added a sack in the fourth quarter. Bookending the starting d-line, Desmond Little’s blend of speed and power got him into the backfield for two sacks and ended the game with 3 tackles as well.
On a 38-point victory that felt like it could’ve been by at least 20 more, UAB head coach Trent Dilfer knows improvement is needed moving forward
