Projection: likely out
Utah Valley's resume presents several challenges for a strong NCAA tournament bid. While they have secured victories against teams like Grand Canyon and UTEP, their overall performance shows inconsistency, particularly in losses to Stanford and North Dakota, which diminish their case for at-large consideration. The narrow win against West Georgia and the defeat against UTEP also highlight a lack of dominant victories against higher-ranked opponents. As they head into upcoming games, such as the matchup against Tarleton State, the need for convincing wins becomes critical to bolster their standing. If they can secure strong performances against teams in their conference, it might help improve their overall perception, but they'll need to avoid further slip-ups against lesser opponents to maintain their current trajectory.
