A moot point since UAB (along with Rice, UTSA, Charlotte, North Texas and FAU) moves to the American in 2023.

No those are the divisions. Due to the constraint of everyone having to play 8 conference games, two in the west will not play a division game against each other. Those two are UAB and UTEP.
