MONROE, La. β The UAB football team (1-1) suffered a 32-6 loss at ULM (2-0) on Saturday night at Malone Stadium.
Β
Despite ULM only outgaining UAB by 37 yards (296-259), the Warhawks had 209 yards on the ground and used a safety and a pick-six in the second half to break the game open.
Β
Jacob Zeno was 22-of-32 for 167 yards but was under pressure all night long as ULM tallied five sacks and nine TFL. Lee Beebe Jr. led the team in rushing (62) and receiving (35).
Β
Defensively, Sirad Bryant had a career-high 13 tackles while Everett Roussaw Jr. tied his career high with 10.
Β
The two teams traded field goals for the only points of the first quarter, but ULM blocked a punt right at the end of the first and turned that into seven points three plays later on a 16-yard rush for a 10-3 lead with 14:10 left in the second quarter.
Β
Following his career long 46-yarder, UAB kickerΒ Jonah Delange connected on a 26-yarder midway through the second quarter to make the score 10-6, and ULM would cap the scoring with three seconds left with a 37-yard field goal for a 13-6 halftime lead.
Β
A UAB defensive stop on ULM's first drive of the second half gave the ball back to the Blazers at their own 4-yard line. However, two plays later Beebe Jr. was tackled in the end zone for a ULM safety which gave the Warhawks a 15-6 lead.
Β
The Warhawks' lead expanded to 22-6 with 4:52 left in the third on a 4-yard rushing touchdown, and a pick-six early in the fourth gave ULM a 23-point lead and put the game out of reach.
Β
The Blazers are back in action next Saturday, Sept. 14, at Arkansas. Kickoff is scheduled for 3:15 p.m. on SEC Network.
