UAB vs Memphis Prediction 

These two teams are battling at the top of the AAC standings right now, so this is a huge game for both sides. UAB has won four games in a row and they have scored at least 80 points in all four of those games. The Blazers are allowing over 75 points against per game on defense this season, but their offense has covered up for most of those issues. Memphis is ranked #18 in the country and they have won 10 of their last 11 games. The Tigers also have a very high powered offense this year and they have scored 79+ points in five straight games. Memphis won the first meeting with UAB by a score of 100-77 and I think they are going to get another win here, as UAB’s defense will be their downfall. Take Memphis here.
