Projection: likely out

Washington State's path to the NCAA tournament looks challenging given their mixed results against both solid and weaker competition. While they’ve secured victories over teams like Boise State and San Francisco, which are respectable wins, they also have significant losses against higher-ranked teams like Gonzaga and St. Mary’s that may weigh heavily on their resume. Additionally, their defensive struggles are evident, particularly in matches against teams with strong offensive capabilities. Maintaining a strong finish against upcoming opponents such as San Diego and Pepperdine is crucial; wins in those games could boost their standing, but any slip-ups could further harm their chances, especially with their recent inconsistency.
