Three things we learned from Conference USA in Week 11

Two seasons ago UAB didn’t have a football team. Two years later, and the Blazers will be playing in the Conference USA Championship Game. UAB defeated Southern Miss 26-23 in overtime to win C-USA West for the first time ever.

Spencer Brown’s game-winning 17-yard touchdown run set the UAB single-season rushing touchdown record with 14. Want more history? The Blazers are now ranked in the Coaches Poll for the first time ever.

After guiding UAB to an 8-5 record and their second ever bowl game in #theReturn, Bill Clark has taken the program to even newer heights as the Blazers have won 12 straight home games at Legion Field, a school record, and is now one win away from hosting the Conference USA Championship Game.
