Projection: need to automatically qualify

NE Omaha's resume is riddled with challenges that undermine their NCAA tournament hopes. While they secured a narrow win against a lower-ranked Stetson team, the losses to Minnesota and UNLV highlight significant struggles against stronger opponents, raising concerns about their competitive viability. Their offensive and defensive rankings indicate a lack of consistency, and upcoming games provide mixed opportunities for improvement. For instance, matchups against Alabama State and Abilene Christian could help bolster their standing if they can secure favorable results, but continued setbacks against teams like South Dakota and Iowa State will likely further damage their tournament aspirations. With a heavy reliance on winning the Summit League tournament, they need to capitalize on upcoming games to improve their candidacy.
