Perry has had a good year for the Blazers, as he has started the last two games, throwing for more than 200 yards in each game. 

Key Matchup: Houston’s QB Case Keenum vs. the UAB secondary.

Case will throw for another ridiculous amount of touchdown passes this week and may go over the 600-yard passing mark. Watch out NCAA record books because Case is about to break a few more single-game records on Saturday.

Prediction: Houston 70, UAB 24
