They don't call it March Madness for nothing! We have already seen multiple surprises in the conference tournament, and I think we have a strong probability of seeing another one in this game. The UAB Blazers have a very misleading 18-12 record heading into this game. It was manufactured out of a soft early season schedule that saw them jump out to an impressive-looking 11-3 mark, but they have since been a sub par 7-9 over their last 16. Charlotte's season is unfortunately defined by a 6-game losing streak, but they have rebounded with two straight wins. They happened to catch UAB during the bad streak, and despite not playing well, they lost that game by just 2 points. UAB has been pedestrian over their last 16, and come limping in with two straight losses. Charlotte has won two straight, and will finish the job this time. Play on Charlotte to get the outright win.
