StatSeed is StatSheet's postseason projections for all of Division I, including the NCAA Tournament, National Invitation Tournament (NIT), College Basketball Invitational (CBI), and the CollegeInsider.com Postseason Tournament (CIT). Read more about how StatSeed is calculated.

StatSheet is now projecting Southern Miss as a four seed in the NCAA Tournament. The Golden Eagles are currently on track for an automatic bid, but don't need it to retain the invite as they're unranked in the AP Poll and sit at #10 in the StatSheet StatRank. They have a 20-3 overall record and a 7-1 record in the C-USA.

During the last four games, Southern Miss notched a quality win against RPI #20 Memphis and wins against UCF, East Carolina, and Marshall.

Southern Miss is decent against top competition, with an 8-3 record against the RPI Top 100 that includes a 3-2 record against the RPI Top 50 but an 0-1 record against AP ranked teams. The Golden Eagles boast three quality wins including RPI #20 Memphis, RPI #40 Ole Miss, and RPI #19 Colorado State with no bad losses at all.

The last four teams into the NCAA Tournament with at-large bids are Miami (FL) (13-7, 4-3 ACC, StatRank #50), Ole Miss (14-8, 4-4 SEC, StatRank #51), New Mexico (19-4, 5-2 Mountain West, StatRank #40), and Minnesota (16-7, 4-6 Big Ten, StatRank #52).

The first four teams out are Brigham Young (20-6, 8-3 West Coast, StatRank #44), Colorado (16-7, 8-3 Pac 12, StatRank #64), Notre Dame (15-8, 7-3 Big East, StatRank #61), and Purdue (15-8, 5-5 Big Ten, StatRank #71).

The next four out are Arizona (16-8, 7-4 Pac 12, StatRank #65), LSU (13-9, 3-5 SEC, StatRank #69), Pittsburgh (14-9, 3-7 Big East, StatRank #61), and Texas (14-9, 4-6 Big 12, StatRank #66).
