Projection: likely out
Washington's resume shows several glaring weaknesses that hinder its chances of tournament selection. The team has struggled against ranked opponents, evident in lopsided losses to UCLA and Michigan, while also failing to consistently secure wins against mid-tier competitors. The victories against teams like Maryland and Colorado State provide some credibility, yet they are overshadowed by losses against teams like Nebraska and Indiana, which further diminish their overall standing. Additionally, a lack of quality wins away from home compounds their troubles, as shown in a disappointing performance against Oregon and an inability to capitalize on lower-tier teams like USC. To enhance their resume, they must secure upcoming wins against tougher conference opponents, but their current trajectory looks unlikely to make a significant impact on the selection committee.
