Projected seed: 14 (automatic qualifier)

Wright State’s standing reflects a résumé with eye-catching highs but enough damaging results away from home to keep the team on the bubble. The best moments are clear: a neutral-site win over Northern Kentucky, road victories at Oakland and Wisconsin Green Bay, and a dominant home win over Cleveland State that show the program can both travel and protect its court. Those positives are offset by a heavy defeat at Butler, a road loss at California, setbacks to Toledo and a neutral loss to Kent, plus close road losses at Marshall and Youngstown State that expose inconsistency in hostile environments. Given that mix of strong conference wins and harmful nonconference blemishes the straightest path into the field runs through the Horizon tournament where more road and neutral victories against familiar league opponents would erase the bad losses and cement a bid.
