Projection: next four out
Washington State's resume has some notable wins, like against Bradley and Boise State, but their inconsistency is concerning, particularly with losses to teams like Iowa and at home against Washington. Their defense ranks poorly, which can be problematic in tight games, highlighted by their shootout loss to Pacific. The upcoming schedule presents both challenges and opportunities; victories against St. Mary's and Gonzaga could significantly bolster their case, but losing those contests would likely seal their fate. With mixed results against comparable teams, it's a struggle to see them securely in the tournament without a strong finish.
