Projection: need to automatically qualify

St. Louis has had a rollercoaster season to say the least. They've shown they can compete, with a surprising rout of Dayton late in the season, a game that showcased their offensive potential. However, their inconsistent performances across both conference and non-conference schedules, including a heavy loss to Southern Illinois and a series of other setbacks against teams like Loyola-Chicago, Massachusetts, and VCU, have left them in a precarious position. While they possess a capable offense, as they've demonstrated in victories over Hofstra and Louisiana Tech, their defense has been their Achilles' heel, often unable to hold firm in critical moments. To have any chance of dancing in March, they'll need to capture their conference tournament outright, as their overall record and mixed results throughout the season won't cut it with the selection committee. The inconsistency, especially on the defensive end, has placed them in a must-win situation during their conference tournament if they have any hopes of an NCAA tournament bid.
