Projected seed: 11 (last four in)

Miami’s resume is anchored by impressive road victories at Kent, Buffalo, Wright State and Toledo and by a high-profile home win over Akron that show the team can close in hostile environments. Those are the resume’s best moments, but many other wins came against smaller programs such as Mercyhurst, Maine, Old Dominion and UNC Greensboro and therefore carry limited weight with a committee. The season also features a string of high-scoring, close finishes, including the barnburners with Buffalo and Ohio, that highlight potent offense while exposing defensive inconsistencies that could be exploited in tournament play. With the conference slate and the league tournament still providing chances to add a marquee neutral-site victory or a deep run, Miami’s profile looks worthy of faint praise but still short of a clear, comfortable bid.
