The 2024 Big Sky projected standings help determine the seeds of the teams in the 2024 Big Sky Championship bracket. The remainder of the season is simulated a large number of times, and the resulting seeds are used to simulate the Big Sky tournament.

A team's relative odds to win the 2024 Big Sky Championship depend only partly on their Big Sky bracket seed. Winning the Big Sky Championship also depends on the dynamics of the 2024 Big Sky bracket. In some cases, the team with a better Big Sky Championship seed may actually face a harder path to the Big Sky Championship championship than a team with a worse Big Sky tournament seed.

In addition, because Big Sky tournament seeds are based on win-loss records in Big Sky conference games, Big Sky tournament seeds are not always the most accurate measure of a team's true performance level. This is another reason why higher seeded teams in the Big Sky bracket can have better odds to win the 2024 Big Sky Championship than lower seeded teams in the Big Sky bracket.
