Projection: need to automatically qualify
Eastern Michigan's tournament aspirations are heavily reliant on their performance in the upcoming MAC games. Their weak non-conference results, such as losses to Texas State and Loyola-Chicago, combined with a lack of notable wins, place them at a disadvantage. With an inconsistent offense and a defense that has struggled against both high and mid-major opponents, sweeping the lower-tier teams in their conference like Northern Illinois and Bowling Green becomes crucial. They must also aim for at least one significant upset against solid competitors like Kent State or Toledo to gain any traction in the eyes of the selection committee. Without a drastic turnaround in their performance, the path to an automatic bid is their best shot at the NCAA tournament.
