LSU
Maryland
ND

In other words, almost all of its non-conference schedule. Am I missing any? Da bracket

You're not missing any. Carl Adamec wrote earlier that 12 of UConn's 13 nonconference opponents (all but Nebraska) made the field, which is pretty incredible. So, you got them all.

Maybe if UConn is struggling to fill its non-conference dance card, they can use this to help persuade teams why they should sign up.

BTW, this must be a record, right?

For non-conference, almost certainly, I would think.

Over all (i.e. 14) would require lots of checking. If your conference gets in 8 (and didn't the BE get 9 one year?) that's 7, so could maybe half of your OOC make the tourney? Possible back at the height of Tenn's tough scheduling period, possible for UConn and Notre Dame in BE days as well.

I was thinking non-conference, but your point is well-taken - it would be worth checking the overall.

Just looking at the bracket. I can see a few very possible upsets, none involving UConn.
