Projection: need to automatically qualify

Missouri State's season shows promise but ultimately raises concerns regarding their overall strength of schedule and performance consistency. Their victories against teams like Tulsa and UC Santa Barbara highlight the potential for offensive firepower, but the disheartening losses to Butler and S Dakota State reveal weaknesses against more competitive opponents. The inability to secure wins against conference rivals such as Drake and Illinois State further complicates their standing, as these are critical match-ups for a team looking to bolster their tournament resume. To enhance their chances of making the NCAA tournament, they must capitalize on upcoming games against lower-ranked conference foes to secure a few decisive wins and bolster their overall record.
