Projection: need to automatically qualify

SIUE's chances of making the NCAA tournament hinge on their ability to secure a strong finish in the Ohio Valley Conference and possibly earning an automatic bid. Their overall record shows inconsistency, particularly evident in losses to high-ranked opponents like Indiana and Illinois, which highlight difficulties against elite competition. While they have had some positive moments, such as narrow victories against teams like Tennessee State and solid wins against weaker opponents, the defense has been a concern, allowing high point totals. If they can capitalize on their remaining conference schedule by securing wins against competitive teams, especially in crucial matchups against Southeast Missouri State and Tennessee Tech, they can enhance their resume significantly and position themselves better for postseason consideration.
