Projection: likely out
Nevada's season has been a rollercoaster, highlighted by solid wins against teams like Santa Clara and VCU but marred by losses to several key opponents, including Colorado State and New Mexico. Their inability to consistently secure victories against top-tier competition in the Mountain West, coupled with an up-and-down performance against non-conference foes, has left their tournament resume lacking the necessary statement wins. Defensively, they hold their own, yet an offense that flounders against stronger defenses, as seen in the games against San Diego State and Vanderbilt, reveals a concerning trend. Moving forward, crucial games against teams like Boise State and Utah State could provide opportunities to bolster their standing, but they must capture those wins to enhance their NCAA tournament hopes.
