Right now BYU currently projects to finish in that 7th - 9th place range.
They currently project to finish 10-10. There are 6 teams projected to finish with 12+ conference wins (Houston, Iowa St, Arizona, Kansas, Texas Tech, and Baylor). There are 3 teams projected to finish with 9 to 11 wins (West Virginia, BYU, and Cincinnati). The 3 teams after that on the list are Arizona St, TCU, and UCF who are all projected to win only 7 or 8 conference games as of right now. Here's what projected standings would look like if combining KenPom ratings with Bart Torvik's projections.

Houston (17-3)
Iowa St (16-4)
Arizona (14-6)
Kansas (13-7)
Texas Tech (13 - 7)
Baylor (12-8)
West Virginia (11-9)
BYU (10-10)
Cincinnati (9-11)
Arizona St (8-12)
TCU (8-12)
UCF (7-13)
Colorado (6-14)
Utah (6-14)
Kansas St (5-15)
Oklahoma St (5-15)

My gut says that 7 of those teams would end up in the NCAA tournament with another 3 or 4 in the NIT. It's possible an 8th and/or 9th could end up sneaking in, but B12 seems to be tracking for around 7 as of right now.
