ANALYSIS: They're far from the worst of the worst, but UAB should not be a terribly frightening opponent for most clubs. Ranked 179th overall (out of 351) in our most recent ratings, they presently have a record of 17-16. They are also ranked by this site as the #6 team (out of 14) in Conference USA (average ranking 202.4).
If there is a strength for UAB this year, it's probably on the defensive end of the court. The team is rated 167th in defensive efficiency, allowing fewer than 103 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO. UAB makes a point to avoid fouls and prevent opponents from getting to the free throw line. With a defensive free throw attempt rate of 23.73 vs. AO, they are currently rated 51st in the country in that category. If UAB does exhibit a weakness on the defensive end of the floor, it'd likely be the team's propensity to allow too many shot attempts per trip. The squad has a rating of 85.18 in defensive field goal attempt rate vs. AO, which ranks 46th-worst in college basketball.
UAB is not quite as good on the offensive end of the floor. The team is ranked 183rd in offensive efficiency, scoring about 100 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. UAB is one of the more inferior teams in the college game when it comes to maximizing opportunities to score on offense. The team is nationally ranked 303rd in offensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of only 78.77 vs. AO. If UAB does have a strength offensively, it would have to be the team's ability to obtain and convert second-chance opportunities from offensive rebounds. The squad has a second-chance conversion percentage of 8.2% vs. AO, which ranks 44th in the nation.
UAB has been one of the most erratic teams in college basketball this year (currently ranked 338th overall in consistency), which makes the outcomes of their future games far more difficult to predict. On the road, UAB performs noticeably worse than they do at home. The team is currently ranked 341st in the country in the away-from-home metric we track.
Projections are based on present-day ratings. Stars indicate games played at a neutral location. Game efficiencies only account for data before a contest has gone analytically final and are adjusted to extract home-court advantage.
CURIOUS TRENDS:
UAB is typically better vs. teams that are typically efficient on offense. Against foes that have an offensive efficiency rating vs. AO greater than 103.92, UAB performs above their norm 75% of the time. Against the remaining opposition, the team performs above average 40% of the time.
