The UAB Blazers football team represents the University of Alabama at Birmingham in the sport of American football. The Blazers compete in the Football Bowl Subdivision of the National Collegiate Athletic Association and American Athletic Conference. The team is led by interim head coach Alex Mortensen, after previous head coach Trent Dilfer’s firing on 12 October 2025. Home games were previously held at Legion Field in Birmingham from the 1991 season to the 2020 season. A new stadium, Protective Stadium, has been the home of the Blazers starting from the 2021 season. The new stadium's capacity is over 47,000.
The UAB football program was terminated after the 2014 season but was reinstated shortly thereafter. The team went on hiatus for two seasons before returning in 2017. UAB won both its first conference championship and bowl game in program history in 2018.
