Projection: likely out
UNLV's overall body of work leaves them on the outside looking in come tournament time. The squad's inconsistency is glaring, highlighted by troubling losses to teams like Southern University and an unconvincing loss to a middling Air Force team, which mark their resume with red flags. Although they notched a significant win over Creighton and showed competitiveness within their conference, including a win over New Mexico and tight contests against San Diego State, their overall performance lacks the kind of marquee victories needed to offset those bad losses. With a balloon that's been punched by a series of ups and downs, the Runnin' Rebels need a strong showing in their conference tournament to hope for an invite to the big dance, where consistency is the golden ticket that they have yet to grasp.
