Projection: likely out
San Francisco's tournament prospects are shaky, primarily due to a mixed bag of results against varying levels of competition. Losses to Memphis and Clemson highlight struggles against higher-tier teams, while victories over weaker opponents like Chicago State and Mercyhurst do little to bolster their credibility. Although they have upcoming games against stronger teams like Santa Clara and Gonzaga, which could serve as opportunities for signature wins, their current profile lacks the quality victories needed for serious tournament consideration. The potential impact of upcoming games is significant; a strong showing could improve their standing, but any slip-ups against lower-ranked opponents may seal their fate for a postseason absence.
