ANALYSIS:
They may not cause sleepless nights for opponents, but UAB, as a slightly above-average team, cannot be totally ignored. They have a record of 22-7 and are ranked 100th overall (out of 357) in the latest Haslametrics ratings. They are also ranked by this site as the #4 team (out of 14) in Conference USA (average ranking 168.9).

UAB will mainly try to find success through their defense. They are ranked 61st in defensive efficiency and allow fewer than 94 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. UAB is a solid rebounding team that will deny the opposition chances to score off of offensive rebounds. They have a rating of 10.41 vs. AO in potential points allowed off of second chances (ranked 33rd in the country). UAB also does a pretty solid job providing themselves chances to score quickly off of steals. They're ranked 40th in potential points off of breakaway steals vs. AO with a rating of 14.17.

UAB is also a fairly decent team on the offensive end of the court. The team ranks 139th nationally in offensive efficiency, scoring about 101 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. UAB allows very few breakaway opportunities for the opposition, which typically translates to fewer turnovers. The team's rating vs. AO for potential breakaway points allowed off of steals is 6.88, which ranks #3 in the country. UAB also loves taking the mid-range two, far more so than most other teams. The club is ranked fifth in ratio of mid-range attempts to total field goal attempts. As far as converting those mid-range shots goes, the team shoots a mediocre 37.5% vs. AO. UAB is lastly one of the very best when it comes to maximizing field goal opportunities. The team is ranked 11th in the NCAA in offensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of 88.15 vs. AO. As far as making those field goal attempts goes, the team is somewhat middle-of-the-road, converting about 43.4% of them vs. AO.
