UAB Blazers
The UAB Blazers are currently on a five-game winning streak in the AAC, with an uptempo offense that has been key to their success.

Despite their offensive prowess, their defensive weaknesses have limited their overall dominance. In terms of rankings, UAB is 107th in KenPom's ratings and 134th in NET rankings, with a power ranking of 80. They are ranked 15th in offense and 282nd in defense, with solid percentages in field goals and free throws. Defensively, they struggle with three-point shooting and free throws, but excel in defensive rebounds. The Blazers will need to improve their defense in order to compete successfully in their upcoming games.
