It’s back to work for the Blazers with the Vols dead ahead

After its usual off-day on Monday, the UAB football team was back to work Tuesday morning for a two-hour, full-pad practice.
The Blazers began their on-field preparations for this Saturday’s road game at Tennessee, one of two non-conference contests remaining on the schedule (the other is Oct. 23 at Mississippi State).
“It was a little sloppy today,” UAB head coach Neil Callaway said. “Every Tuesday is football jersey
going to be a hard work day. You’re always putting in the new plan for whoever you’re playing that week. We’ll go back at it tomorrow and see what we have.”
The Blazers are looking to carry some momentum from last Saturday’s win over Troy into the Tennessee game. UAB came from 23 points behind to defeat the Trojans on the final play in Birmingham.
UAB will be making its fourth trip to Knoxville, Tenn., and looking for its first win there. The Volunteers own a 3-0 lead in the all-time series, including a victory two years ago. The 2005 contest provided the closest outcome with the Blazers falling 17-10.
“(Tennessee) does a nice job running and throwing,” Callaway said. “They have a big, physical offensive line and good receivers. They’re a talented football team.”
Saturday’s kickoff is scheduled for 12:21 p.m. ET (11:21 a.m. CT) at Neyland Stadium and will be televised by the SEC Network.
Before the season Iowa fans worried about how the Hawkeyes would keep three running backs happy with carries. With the news that Jewel Hampton will be out for the rest of the season due to a knee injury, Adam Robinson is now the last man standing in the backfield. The sophomore back says he is up to San Francisco 49ers jersey
the challenge and he talks about the two freshman backs who might see playing time.
ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP)—Notre Dame and Navy will play in Dublin, Ireland, in 2012.
Navy athletic director Chet Gladchuk says Aviva Stadium will be the site for the 86th meeting between the Fighting Irish and Midshipmen.
The $410 million stadium opened in May and has a seating capacity of 50,000.
“Obviously as an Irish-Catholic from Boston, Mass., I’m going to have a lot of requests for tickets—not airline tickets,” Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly said after Tuesday’s practice in South Bend, Ind. “No, I just think it’s a great venue and I’m excited about it. That’s one of the unique things about being an Buffalo Bills jersey
independent, that you can have a game like that on the schedule. It certainly doesn’t hurt in recruiting, either.”
Navy and Notre Dame have met every season since 1927. This season they will play at the New Meadowlands Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J., on Oct. 23.
