Projection: need to automatically qualify
Marshall's path to the NCAA tournament hinges on both recent performances and upcoming matchups. Their inability to secure wins against higher-ranked opponents like Purdue and Toledo reveals glaring weaknesses, particularly in defense, which has consistently struggled throughout the season. The victories against teams like Bellarmine and James Madison highlight offensive potential but are undermined by losses to lower-tier teams like Georgia State and Southern Miss. For Marshall to strengthen their résumé, they must capitalize on upcoming opportunities against teams like Arkansas State and Old Dominion, where they hold favorable chances. Success in these contests is crucial to improve their standing in a competitive Sun Belt Conference, making it imperative they convert these chances into wins to boost their tournament candidacy.
