BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - The UAB Football Spring Game, which is set for this Saturday at 1 p.m. CST, will stream live for a national audience on ESPN3.
The game is being produced by Sinclair Broadcast Group and ESPN3 will then distribute to a national audience. Fans in Birmingham can watch the game on WABM MY68.
UAB becomes the first Conference USA member to have its Spring Game on ESPN3 and joins an elite list of schools to have its game on the ESPN Family of Networks in April.
"We talk about making UAB a national program and things like this help accomplish that goal," head coach Bill Clark said. "This will be great for UAB fans across the country to get a look at what we are building as we lead up to our return on September 2."
UAB is one of 21 schools to have its Spring Game carried on the ESPN Family of Networks, and the only school from the Group of Five to appear on ESPN this spring. The Blazers join Alabama, Arkansas, Auburn, Clemson, Florida, Florida State, Georgia, Georgia Tech, Kentucky, LSU, Mississippi State, Missouri, North Carolina, North Carolina State, Ole Miss, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Texas A&M and Syracuse to have their games carried.
