Projection: need to automatically qualify
ULM's path to the NCAA tournament is fraught with challenges, evident from their tough non-conference slate that includes heavy losses against LSU and Tulane. Their inconsistent offensive and defensive performances, particularly against lower-ranked teams, raise significant concerns about their ability to secure a strong standing in the Sun Belt. With multiple matchups against mid-tier opponents like South Alabama and Troy, ULM needs to turn those 30-40% win probabilities into victories to bolster their resume. The need for quality wins is paramount, and their struggle in previous outings against teams in the range of 100-200 indicates they must elevate their game significantly to earn any hope of an at-large bid and instead focus on securing the automatic qualifier through conference play.
