Projection: need to automatically qualify

Loyola Marymount's tournament hopes hinge on more than a few substantial challenges. Their non-conference performance, exemplified by losses to teams like UC Irvine and St. Louis, has not bolstered their resume as much as they might have hoped. Despite some strong wins, such as over Nevada and Belmont, the inconsistency in their performance, particularly against stronger opponents like Gonzaga and St. Mary's, raises concerns. Even winning against low-ranked teams like Prairie View and San Diego does little to enhance their standing, as these victories come with caveats. To enhance their chances, securing victories against higher-ranked conference foes and avoiding further losses to lower-ranking teams will be crucial in the coming weeks.
