Projection: likely out
BYU's current standing makes a difficult case for their inclusion in the NCAA tournament. Although they've racked up convincing wins against lower-tier teams like Cent Arkansas and Mississippi Valley State, their inability to consistently compete against quality opponents is a major concern. The loss to Mississippi, a solid mid-tier team, highlights this issue. Upcoming games will be crucial; matchups against strong teams like Arizona State and Kansas will be testaments to their viability, while a potential win against Houston could significantly bolster their resume. Conversely, continuing to drop games against mid-range opponents like Cincinnati or TCU would substantially harm their chances for a tournament bid.
