MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) --- Jaylin Carter ran for 132 yards and two touchdowns, and
Memphis beat UAB 38-13 on Saturday night.
A two-touchdown third quarter for Memphis (5-1, 2-0 American) turned a 13-10
deficit into a 24-13 lead when Carter ran it in from 24 yards and Marcus Stokes
threw a 45-yard touchdown pass to Tychaun Chapman.
Following a UAB (3-3, 1-1) turnover, Memphis extended the lead to 31-13 when
Hunter Tipton ran it in from the 1 with 10:22 left to play.
The Blazers posted a 7-0 lead when Ja'Vin Simpkins ran it in from the 11 on the
game's opening drive. Carter ran it in from the 14 to tie it, and Memphis went
up 10-7 with a 33-yard field goal from Philippe Laforge.
UAB's Jonah Delange countered with field goals of 49 and 57 yards to help give
the Blazers a 13-10 halftime advantage.
Stokes threw for 164 yards and two touchdowns for Memphis. Ryder Burton threw
for 131 yards for UAB.
A win would have given the Blazers their first three-game winning streak since
winning the final two games of 2022, and the 2023 season opener, and their
first three-game streak within the same season since 2019.
