Loser: UAB coach Trent Dilfer
ULM coach Bryant Vincent was a longtime UAB assistant when he was named the program's interim coach in 2022. After the season, he was passed over by former NFL quarterback Trent Dilfer, who came to the job without any college coaching experience. Dilfer took over a UAB program coming off six straight winning seasons. After a 32-6 loss against Vincent's Warhawks, Dilfer is now 3-9 against FBS opponents.
UAB's signature offense averaged 3.9 yards per play and 2.6 yards per carry against a team that allowed FCS Jackson State to drop 14 points in Week 1. The Warhawks obliterated UAB's defense to the tune of 209 yards and two scores. It's one thing to lose a nonconfence game badly. What's worse is seeing what could have been.
