Projection: need to automatically qualify
North Dakota faces a challenging road ahead if they aim for an NCAA tournament bid, as their overall performance has been inconsistent, particularly against higher-ranked opponents like Alabama and Colorado State, where they suffered significant losses. They've had some bright spots, like their victory against Utah Valley, but their inability to consistently secure wins against teams within and outside their conference undermines their standing. Upcoming matchups against teams such as South Dakota and North Dakota State are crucial; winning those could enhance their chances. However, their poor defensive metrics and mixed success against teams in the Summit League suggest they will likely need to win their conference tournament to secure an NCAA tournament berth.
