Since losing at Miami, UAB is on a 3-game winning streak.
The Blazers are looking to make it a 4-game streak, trying to knock off previously-ranked Louisiana. Plays like this, however, are more likely to cause injuries than help win the game.
UAB wide receiver Trea Shropshire was apparently itching for some contact. As the Blazers pushed the ball toward the goal line, you can see No. 15 attempt to dive on the pile. It did not go as he hoped.

Luckily, it doesn’t look like Shropshire was hurt. Louisiana ran a kickoff back before half, cutting UAB’s lead to 13-10.
