Projection: likely out

Seattle’s season reads like a résumé with high upside and conspicuous blemishes: the team has earned impressive road wins at Stanford and on the West Coast and beat Washington at home, showing it can defend and win away from its own floor, but that tape is marred by an unexpected home loss to Cal Poly, a neutral-site setback to UC Santa Barbara, a home defeat to San Francisco and by lopsided losses to the conference’s top teams Gonzaga and Saint Mary’s. That mix of statement victories and damaging defeats, combined with stretches when the offense went quiet against physical opponents, leaves Seattle dependent on its remaining conference slate and the league tournament to manufacture a headline neutral or road win over a recognized foe to tip the balance, because without a new signature result the strong defensive moments are offset by the poor losses.
