Projection: likely out
Murray State’s season reflects inconsistency, highlighted by a mix of solid victories and tough losses against quality opponents. The win against Middle Tennessee State showcases their offensive capability, but the defeats against teams like Pittsburgh and Nebraska reveal significant areas of struggle, particularly on defense. Going forward, matchups with Bradley and Belmont become crucial; victories against these opponents could significantly enhance their profile. Meanwhile, maintaining performance against lower-ranked teams like Evansville will be essential to bolster their standings, as every game becomes a test to prove their worth for an at-large bid.
