UAB has won their last 3 straight games and they have been playing well against tougher opponents, but they have also been playing down to their competition. They won their last 2 games after getting their 1st win of the season against Maryland but they only beat Alcorn State at home by 3 points who is 1-7 after 8 games this year and they are coming off of a very close road win against Middle Tennessee by 1 point. UAB has been good this season but they do not blow teams out when they win and if they win this game at home against a very good Furman team, it is going to be a close game as Furman will keep it close while UAB does not dominate and pull away. Furman will cover the spread in this game.
