Projected seed: 7 (automatic qualifier)

New Mexico has crafted a solid resume highlighted by key victories, such as their wins against UCLA and VCU, showcasing their ability to compete with top-tier teams. Their offense has been a standout, consistently scoring in the 80s against several opponents, reflecting a high-powered attack. However, defensive vulnerabilities are evident, with several losses against teams like San Diego State and Utah State, where they struggled to contain their opponents. With upcoming opportunities against competitive conference foes like Nevada and Boise State, New Mexico can strengthen their standing, but they need to showcase improved defensive resilience to maintain momentum as conference play continues.
