Projected seed: 12 (automatic qualifier)

UAB’s résumé reads like a team with some signature highs and some glaring lows, anchored by neutral-site victories over Southern Illinois and UTEP and a road victory at Drake that show they can win outside of Birmingham, while a lopsided trip to NC State and a strange home defeat to Alabama State expose underlying inconsistency; conference play gives them clear paths to mend things with a home date against Wichita State, road tests at South Florida and Memphis, and home opportunities against North Texas alongside more favorable outings like Rice and East Carolina, so the committee will weigh those solid neutral wins and the road success against the damaging nonconference setbacks and the need for more resume-building wins away from home.
