The Trent Dilfer experience at UAB is not going well, and it may have reached some shocking new lows during Saturday’s 56-24 loss at Tennessee.
Not only did the Blazers get embarrassed on the scoreboard, but several embarrassing moments happened throughout the game, including one involving Dilfer himself that seemed to indicate a lack of pre-game focus.

The game got off to an ominous start for UAB when Dilfer was spotted on the sidelines taking photos of Neyland Stadium on his phone, and then pretty obviously typing out something on his phone.

There’s not really a context for this that is going to make it look like anything other than a shocking lack of pre-game focus…
