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 projects Davidson to be a 15 seed in the NCAA Tournament. The Wildcats are currently on track for an automatic bid and will need it to retain the invite as they're #70 in the StatSheet StatRank. They have a 17-5 overall record and an 11-1 record in the SoCon.

Over the last four games, Davidson grabbed wins against Chattanooga and Furman but also suffered some damage with a bad loss to RPI #261 Samford.

Davidson has little experience against top competition, with a 1-3 record against the RPI Top 100 that includes a 1-2 record against the RPI Top 50 and AP Top 25. While the Wildcats have a single quality win against AP #8 Kansas, they're also weighed down by two bad losses including RPI #261 Samford and RPI #127 Charlotte.

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).
