Projected seed: 13 (automatic qualifier)

Yale's season has shown moments of promise, particularly with convincing wins like the one against Quinnipiac and a strong offensive performance against Rhode Island. However, losses to higher-ranked opponents such as Purdue and Delaware highlight significant weaknesses, particularly on defense, where they've struggled against potent offenses. Their upcoming Ivy League slate provides a chance to bolster their resume, especially if they can secure wins against teams like Harvard and Princeton, who will test their mettle. Ultimately, their ability to capitalize on these matchups will determine if they can improve their standing or risk falling short of an at-large berth.
