Projection: likely out
Nevada’s resume presents a mixed bag, as they've scored solid wins against the likes of Santa Clara and Sam Houston State, but their losses to teams like Vanderbilt and Washington State raise red flags about their ability to compete against higher-caliber opponents. The strength of their defense shows promise, but with only a handful of notable victories and several remaining games against tough competition like Utah State and San Diego State, their potential for signature wins is limited. The upcoming contests against these ranked teams will be crucial; dropping these matches could solidify their position on the outside looking in for the tournament, while pulling off upsets could dramatically shift their trajectory.
