Projection: need to automatically qualify
Loyola Marymount faces a challenging path with a lackluster overall record and a mix of quality wins and tough losses. The victories against teams like Nevada and Belmont provide some positive highlights, but the losses to higher-ranked opponents such as UC Irvine and Gonzaga showcase significant gaps in performance. Their recent ability to win against teams like Santa Clara reflects potential, yet upcoming matchups against struggling teams could help elevate their standing if they capitalize on those opportunities. However, facing strong foes like St. Mary’s and Gonzaga again puts them at risk of further damaging their resume, underscoring the necessity for stellar performances in less daunting contests to boost their tournament aspirations.
