UAB Blazers Set to Battle North Texas Mean Green at UNT Coliseum

As the University of Alabama at Birmingham Blazers prepare to face off against the North Texas Mean Green at the UNT Coliseum, fans are eager to see if the Blazers can continue their recent performance trends. The upcoming game, scheduled for January 28th, promises to be a thrilling encounter in Denton.

The Blazers have shown a mixed bag of results in their past games. In their most recent matchup against Saint Joseph's Hawks, they fell short with 57 points compared to the Hawks' 63. Despite this loss, there were positive takeaways; notably, their free-throw accuracy was impressive at 85 percent and they maintained a solid three-point percentage of 40.

However, looking back on previous games reveals that this loss was an anomaly in what has been an otherwise strong series of performances. In an emphatic victory over Wagner Seahawks with a scoreline of 79-39, UAB showcased their defensive prowess by forcing turnovers and converting them into points – achieving a staggering point differential from turnovers.

Additionally, when hosting South Carolina State Lady Bulldogs at Bartow Arena earlier this season, the Blazers secured a comfortable win with 69 points against Lady Bulldogs' 54. Their defensive efforts were notable as they recorded eight steals and four blocks while maintaining an assist-to-turnover ratio of 1.5.

The UAB Blazers will aim to replicate these dominant performances rather than dwell on their recent slip-up as they enter the UNT Coliseum – known for its energetic atmosphere which could play into home-court advantage for North Texas Mean Green.

Fans can catch all the action from this anticipated match-up on January 28th at 8 PM (UTC) and support their team as they look to add another victory to their record.
