Projection: need to automatically qualify

Evansville's resume is challenged by a combination of weak non-conference performances and inconsistent success within their own league. Their early losses to teams like North Texas and Ohio State, especially the significant margin against Ohio, highlight their struggles when facing higher-tier competition. While they secured victories against teams like Western Kentucky and Illinois State, the overall lack of quality wins stunts their at-large hopes. With several upcoming matchups against middle and lower-tier teams, Evansville’s path to the tournament hinges on winning crucial games against peers, especially a rematch with Murray State, which presents an opportunity to bolster their standing if they can earn a much-needed win on the road.
