San Diego State is expected to make the 2025 NCAA Tournament even if it doesnโ€™t win the Mountain West automatic bid.ย 

Currently, ESPNโ€™s Joe Lunardi has the Aztecs in the Last Four Byes section of his bracketology projection.

That said, head coach Brian Dutcher probably wants to cement things with a few wins over the next few days. A conference tournament week that runs heavy with bid steals could make Selection Sunday an awfully sweaty day in San Diego.
