Projection: need to automatically qualify

Utah Tech's resume presents significant challenges for an at-large bid, primarily due to their lack of quality wins and numerous losses against ranked teams. A key moment was their defeat against Oregon State, where they struggled offensively, scoring only 57 points, highlighting their inability to compete against higher-tier opponents. Losses to New Mexico State, Wyoming, and notably, back-to-back defeats against both Utah Valley and Grand Canyon, demonstrate a struggle to secure wins against teams that could bolster their standing. While their victories against teams like Denver and UT Arlington offer some hope, they need strong performances in upcoming games to improve their chances, particularly against more competitive conference foes and in any potential postseason tournaments.
