They are ranked the highest as the ten seed. Quality wins currently include: UC Irvine and Oregon. Upcoming games to help their seeding: Fresno State, San Diego State.
Fresno State: Out of all the Bulldog’s projections for seedings, the average out as a twelve seed however not receiving enough bracket votes to get in the current top 68. Quality wins include: Pepperdine and UNLV. Upcoming games to help their seeding: Boise State, Air Force and New Mexico.
San Diego State: The Aztecs come in as a thirteen seed averaging out the projections, but have a lot more votes than Fresno State. It is a lot more likely as of now for SDSU to make the top 68 than any other team in the Mountain West not including Boise State.
Quality wins include: Cal. Upcoming games to help their seeding: Boise State.
New Mexico: New Mexico received just two total votes averaging out as a fifteen seed. This rounds out the Mountain West for any teams earning a seed. Long story short, they’re a long shot as of now, however they might have the best resume building win with a thrashing of Northern Iowa. However, they really need some good wins down the road in conference play.
Quality wins include: Northern Iowa, New Mexico State and Fresno State. Upcoming games to help their seeding: Boise State, Fresno State, multiple Mountain West tournament wins.
