Projected seed: 16 (automatic qualifier, play-in game) (automatic qualifier)

Morehead State’s resume is defined more by damaging road defeats than by statement wins, with lopsided losses at Wake Forest, Georgia and Clemson and a heavy setback at Murray State highlighting struggles away from campus; the neutral-site victory over ULM stands out as the season’s best moment because it proved the team can win off its home floor, but that result is isolated amid shaky road showings at IUPUI and ETSU that dilute any at-large case. The remaining schedule hands the program a mix of home dates against Eastern Illinois and Western Illinois and a sequence of conference road tests at Southern Indiana, SE Missouri State and Tennessee Tech that offer a realistic path to improve the profile, while the conference tournament looms as the most direct route to postseason entry. Until Morehead State follows that neutral-site success with wins against stronger opponents away from home its collection of quality results will look thin and its severe losses will continue to weigh heavily in committee evaluations.
