Projection: likely out

CS Northridge's resume presents significant challenges as they approach the tournament. While they have some impressive wins, such as their strong performances against UC Irvine and Hawai'i, their overall inconsistency is concerning. Losses to teams like St. Bonaventure and UC Riversideā€”both of which are competitive but not eliteā€”undermine their credibility. Additionally, their struggles against higher-ranked opponents, illustrated by the defeat to USC, suggest they may lack the depth necessary to compete successfully at the next level. To enhance their standing, finishing strong in the Big West tournament and securing quality wins against higher-rated opponents will be crucial, but they face an uphill battle given their patchy track record.
