Projected seed: 16 (automatic qualifier)

TN Martin’s résumé is anchored by resume-enhancing road wins at UNLV and Bradley and a neutral-site victory over Prairie View that show it can travel, but those highs are undermined by damaging losses at Southern Illinois and a neutral setback to Southern Miss that highlight defensive inconsistency. The squad has steadied itself with conference wins over Morehead State, Southern Indiana and SIUE which demonstrate it can handle league rivals, yet an away defeat at SE Missouri State and a road loss at Tennessee State leave blemishes a committee will notice. With the rest of the schedule featuring meaningful road tests at Lindenwood and Arkansas Little Rock and winnable home dates against Tennessee Tech and Tennessee State the immediate task is to erase those bad results and then capture the conference tournament to secure an NCAA berth.
