Good question but hard to answer. Although IL has a plus 500 non-conference so far, most teams seem to be fading especially against stronger competition.
As to the Tigers, they may finish non-conference play at 10-3 or 9-4 but the competition has been soft. Minnesota just had their first loss with many more to come and South Carolina will probably go downhill. Oregon State is 1-8. Even if they go on a really good IL run, it is highly unlikely that they will get a bid to the Big Dance unless they win IvyMadness.
Tigers certainly have offensive talent but can they play defense??? Seems questionable at best. Fortunately, it may not be the most daunting task to qualify for IvyMadness this year based on the overall quality of teams. It would seem that the Tigers should be in the mix barring significant injuries.
