Projection: likely out

Louisville’s resume currently lacks the strength necessary for a tournament bid, highlighted by losses to top-ranked teams like Tennessee and Kentucky, where they were unable to keep the score close. While they have secured wins against teams with weaker rankings, the overall quality of their opponents has not been high enough to significantly elevate their standing. The upcoming matchups against North Carolina and Virginia will be critical; victories in those games could enhance their profile considerably, but falling short there would further jeopardize their chances. Moreover, inconsistencies on both offense and defense have been apparent, leaving them vulnerable against competitive teams, which has already contributed to a brutal schedule that sees them struggling against formidable foes.
