Projection: need to automatically qualify
Southern Utah's resume lacks strong performance against higher-tier competition, highlighted by significant losses to UCLA and Loyola-Chicago, making it challenging to secure an at-large bid. While they have racked up wins against lower-ranked teams like Florida International and Nebraska Omaha, their overall strength of schedule diminishes their credibility. Upcoming matchups against New Mexico State and Grand Canyon will be critical; securing victories there can elevate their profile. Conversely, losses in these games could further jeopardize their tournament aspirations, forcing them into a position where they must win the conference tournament to have a shot at the NCAA tournament.
