Projection: need to automatically qualify
Milwaukee's early-season performance raises significant concerns about their tournament chances, especially given their tough loss to Northern Iowa, a team they need to compete better against. Despite a solid win against Duquesne, they struggled against higher-ranked opponents like Longwood, revealing vulnerable defensive lapses that need to be addressed. Upcoming matchups with Wofford and St. Thomas will be critical; picking up wins there could boost their confidence and overall standing. However, games against formidable opponents like UCF and Wright State could drastically impact their tournament outlook if they falter, making it essential for Milwaukee to solidify their defense and maximize opportunities in Horizon league play to secure a better positioning for the automatic bid.
