Sunday’s match is shaping up to be a scrappy matchup: UAB have been smashing the glass this season, having averaged 38.4 rebounds per game.

UAB beat the Green Wave 83-69 when the teams last played back in January. The rematch might be a little tougher for UAB since the squad won’t have the home-court advantage this time around. We’ll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
