Projection: likely out
Toledo's current resume shows a mix of promising offensive performances but significant defensive shortcomings, which is a red flag for their tournament hopes. While the wins against opponents like Wright State and Stetson highlight their offensive firepower, the loss to Troy and uneven defensive rankings underscore a vulnerability that could be exploited in higher-pressure matchups. Upcoming challenges against teams like Houston and Purdue will be crucial; these games not only test Toledo's capabilities against top-tier opponents but could also significantly impact their standing if they fail to compete. Consistency in their play, particularly on defense, is essential as they navigate a schedule filled with both winnable and tougher matchups.
