The Long Offseason: GGSM{UAB}

UAB will have to wait until next fall to try to get rid of that Shame Mask.  It is an unfortunate way to end the season, losing to a team wearing the Shame Mask.  UAB struggled early in the season, losing their first six, including a 49-10 loss to Tulane, the other team that would end the season with a Shame Mask.  A field goal with 40 seconds left game them a two point win over UCF for their first victory of the season, but then they lost their next two games by a combined score of 115-27.  However, they then won a game over the not impressive Memphis Tigers before doing something practically unthinkable--they upset 20th ranked Southern Miss.   A field goal put them up 37-34 with three minutes left, and twice Southern Miss crossed midfield, but twice the Blazer defense held firm to give Southern Miss only their second loss of the season.  Apparently they let this win go to their heads because in their next game, they gave FAU their only win of the season.

Exciting news for Shame Mask fans!  Both Shame Masks now reside on the heads of C-USA teams!  Could they finally meet up next season?  We can only wait with bated breath.
