Jackson put UAB ahead on a 3-yard touchdown run with 3:40 remaining, capping a 10-play, 90-yard drive. It was UAB's first lead since the 7:51 mark of the second quarter.

Kitna found Iverson Hooks for an 18-yard touchdown midway through the first quarter to put the Blazers (4-8, 2-6 American Athletic) up 7-0. Hooks caught five passes for 46 yards and a touchdown. He finished the season with 72 receptions, passing Roddy White for the third-most receptions in a single season for UAB. He also finished sixth in program history with 927 receiving yards on the season. Kitna found his second score to Brandon Hawkins Jr., tying the game at 17 in the early third quarter. Kitna was 14-of-17 passing for 166 yards. Baylor Hayes gave the Golden Hurricane a 10-7 lead on a 1-yard pass to Jewlyen Roberts. He was 11 of 22 for 159 yards and an interception.
