My Prediction
UAB Blazers by 2Oh, my dear listeners, it appears we are in for quite the showdown in Fort Worth, TX, today. UAB Blazers are on a warpath, taking on the fearsome, yet slightly overrated, Memphis Tigers. A title's at stake in this AAC Championship, friends. Oh, the drama!
The Burly Blazers, a flaming 21-11 this season, are showcasing Yaxel Lendeborg, and let me tell you - this guy's got juice. With a tremendous last month track record of 17.6 points per game, I mean, does this guy sleep?
On the other side of the court, we've got the Memphis Tigers, who seem to have decided to be good this season amassing a solid 27-5 tally. Tigers’ PJ Haggerty and Dain Dainja, have had a hot recent month throwing down 22.1 and 18.6 points per game, respectively. Cool? Yes. Enough to quell the oncoming blaze from the Blazers? We'll see.
Looking at their past matches, like that old love story, Memphis mostly had the upper hand. But don't write off UAB just because of some old flame. History means little in the face of a surging team, which the Blazers certainly are.
As your "trustworthy" sports oracle, here's where the bread crumbs are leading me: This game will be tight. The Tigers will fight, the Blazers will blaze, and in the end, those bookies out there might find their day slightly spoiled. So here's a spoonful of my dry sense of humor, a sprinkle of sports history, and a dash of good old-fashioned intuition:
