Santa Clara is trying its best to make the West Coast Conference a three-bid league for the first time since 2022. The Broncos are a bubble team on the verge of an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament.Â
The safest path forward for Santa Clara would be to win the West Coast Conference’s automatic berth to the NCAA Tournament. Presumably, that would mean beating Saint Mary’s on Monday night and then Gonzaga in the final round.
Even if Santa Clara falls short of that, the Broncos may have already done enough to get into the tournament as an at-large team.Â

Santa Clara NCAA Tournament Prediction
I am predicting Santa Clara will make the NCAA Tournament.
Right now, Santa Clara is projected as a tournament team by most major bracketologists, and many of the major conference teams currently behind the Broncos field weak resumes.Â
Even with bid steals or strong conference tournament performances from other bubble teams, I still think Santa Clara will end up with a tournament bid at this point.
