UAB vs Rice Prediction
Now we have the UAB vs Rice Prediction for both teams.
UAB and Rice are set to face off in what could be a high-scoring and unpredictable matchup in Week 11 of the college football season. Both teams have shown inconsistency recently, but trends suggest that the total points could easily go over, as six of UAB’s last seven games against West Division opponents have done so, and at least four of Rice’s last five meetings with UAB have ended with a combined score over the total. UAB comes into this game with a 1-4 record in November and has struggled on the road historically, going 0-16 in their last away games. Meanwhile, Rice has also been inconsistent away from home, winning just one of their last five road contests. Despite these struggles, UAB has dominated this series recently, winning five of the last seven matchups against Rice and covering four of the last five meetings in Houston. Both teams have shown a propensity for explosive plays, particularly through the air, which makes the over an intriguing play. Given their recent history, UAB may have the edge psychologically and strategically, especially in games played at Rice’s home field, but both squads have shown vulnerability that could lead to a wild, high-scoring affair.
Looking closer at UAB, the offense has shown flashes of brilliance but has struggled with consistency, particularly on the ground. The Blazers rank 20th nationally in passing yards with 283.6 per game, but their rushing attack ranks near the bottom at 103rd, averaging just 126.6 yards per game. UAB’s passing efficiency, including 25.9 completions per game, allows them to stretch defenses vertically, but their turnover issues and poor road performance remain major concerns. They are allowing nearly 39 points per game, ranking 133rd in points allowed, meaning that even at their best, they must keep up with opposing offenses. Special teams and penalties have also been problematic, with UAB averaging over 63 penalty yards per game. Historically, though, UAB has fared well against Rice, winning four of their last five meetings at Rice’s stadium and covering the spread in most of those games. If the Blazers can stabilize their running game just enough to keep defenses honest and limit turnovers, their explosive passing game could be too much for Rice to handle, especially given Rice’s defensive struggles against high-tempo offenses.
Rice has had its own challenges this season, particularly against teams from the West Division, losing all five of their recent games against similar opponents. The Owls’ offense is heavily reliant on the ground game, ranking 16th nationally in rushing yards with 213.3 per game, but their passing game is one of the least productive in the country, ranked 134th with just 103 yards per game. This imbalance makes them predictable and easier to defend, especially for a UAB team that has excelled at pressuring opponents through the air. Rice has shown a stronger performance at home historically, covering four of the last five games against UAB in Houston, and they are capable of keeping games competitive if they can control the clock and sustain long drives. However, their defense has struggled mightily against passing attacks, giving up nearly 284 yards per game in UAB’s top-ranked passing attack. For Rice to have a chance, they will need to slow down UAB’s passing game and find ways to generate turnovers, something they have done inconsistently this season. Given the overall trends and offensive mismatches, this game appears to lean toward a UAB victory, though the final score could easily push past the over given both teams’ tendencies.
