Projection: likely out
UAB's résumé sits outside the field because its best moments are offset by damaging lapses that a committee will weigh heavily. The Blazers have shown they can win away from home with road victories at North Texas and at Memphis and a neutral-site nonconference win, yet those positives are undercut by a lopsided loss at NC State, a confounding home defeat to Alabama State and ill-timed slips to Troy and Florida Atlantic that hurt the profile. A string of blowout wins over low‑major opponents dilutes the strength of schedule and with a remaining trip to East Carolina UAB has a clear chance to improve. Without that road victory the most realistic path to the tournament runs through a standout run in the conference tournament.
