Projection: likely out

MTSU's resume shows some potential but is ultimately lacking the quality wins needed to secure a solid NCAA tournament bid. The team's victories against mid-tier opponents like Lipscomb and UAB are promising, but losses to teams such as Murray State and Liberty indicate inconsistency, especially when you consider the significant defeat to a high-caliber opponent in Tennessee. Furthermore, their strength of schedule has not provided enough opportunities for marquee wins, and with upcoming games against teams with similar rankings, such as UTEP and New Mexico State, they must capitalize on these chances to improve their standing, or risk falling further down the tournament conversation.
