Projection: need to automatically qualify
New Mexico State currently faces significant challenges in their quest for an NCAA tournament berth, highlighted by a shaky overall record and a lackluster strength of schedule. Although they've secure victories over teams like Utah Tech and TAM C. Christi, the competition they faced was relatively weak, and a blowout loss to Dayton exposed their offensive vulnerabilities. The remaining schedule poses both opportunities and threats; games against stronger opponents like New Mexico and Liberty will likely define their season. Wins in these matchups could enhance their playoff chances, while any slip-ups against mid-tier teams might further hurt their standing, making the need for consistent performance critical in the coming months.
