Projection: likely out
BYU's resume raises concerns primarily due to their inconsistency against stronger competition. While they secured some notable wins, such as against NC State, they also suffered tough losses, particularly against Mississippi and Providence, which highlight their struggle in pivotal games. Their defensive performance, ranked considerably lower, indicates they may struggle against teams with potent offenses like Houston and Kansas. With several critical matchups on the horizon, including games against Arizona State and Baylor, they'll need to not only win but also impress to bolster their standing; otherwise, their path to the tournament will become increasingly tenuous.
