Projection: need to automatically qualify

MS Valley State’s chances of making the NCAA tournament hinge entirely on winning their conference, given their overall performance this season, which has seen them struggle significantly against tough opponents. Losses to teams like Iowa State and Missouri illustrate their difficulties in scoring and defending at a competitive level. The solitary victory against Arkansas Pine Bluff, who is also struggling, doesn't provide the strong resume needed for at-large contention. Upcoming games against bottom-tier opponents like Alcorn State and Jackson State could provide opportunities for wins, but given their historic struggles, it’s likely that the team will need to secure the Southwestern Athletic Conference automatic qualifier to make any tournament appearance.
