Burton, Reid connect on 43-yard TD to send UAB to comeback win against
Louisiana Monroe
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) --- Ryder Burton threw a 43-yard touchdown to EJ Reid
with 9:34 left and UAB held on to beat Louisiana Monroe 26-20 on Saturday.
Reid got past the Warhawks' secondary and made the uncontested catch which put
the American Conference Blazers ahead of Louisiana Monroe of the Sun Belt
Conference, 23-20.
On Louisiana Monroe's ensuing drive, UAB's Ike Esonwune intercepted Austin
Carlisle. The Blazers used an 11-play, 41-yard drive over nearly five minutes
which produced a 42-yard field goal by Jonah Delange with 1:10 remaining.
Louisiana Monroe ran off eight plays and managed just 29 yards before turning
the ball over on downs. UAB took a knee to end it.
The Warhawks built an early 14-3 lead on a 1-yard touchdown run by CJ Phillips
and a 7-yard scoring run by Carlisle wrapped around a 41-yard field goal by
UAB's Delange. Louisiana Monroe led 17-10 at halftime.
Roderic Robinson II ran for 114 yards on 21 carries for UAB (1-1). Carlisle ran
for 93 yards on 17 carries and a touchdown for ULM (0-2).
