Projection: likely out

Miami's resume shows a troubling pattern of inconsistency, particularly in their performance against better competition. Losses to teams like Drake, Oklahoma State, VCU, and a dominant Tennessee highlight their struggles in high-pressure situations. The weak defensive rankings signal major issues in stopping opponents, which could be a significant liability moving forward. The upcoming games against Florida State and Virginia Tech are crucial; victories there could help bolster their standing, but facing juggernauts like Duke and North Carolina poses a significant risk of further damaging their tournament aspirations. Overall, the opportunities to improve are there, but the current trajectory looks troubling.
