Projection: need to automatically qualify

Bradley’s resume is a study in contrast. Neutral-site victories over Princeton and Liberty combined with strong nonconference wins over Central Michigan and Washington State show the team can deliver in big moments. Those highlights are offset by a neutral loss to Saint Bonaventure, a road defeat at San Francisco and frustrating setbacks to Tennessee Martin, UMass Lowell and UC San Diego that stand out as damaging results. The Missouri Valley slate still offers clear paths to repair the profile through road tests at Belmont, Murray State and Northern Iowa and home chances against Northern Illinois, Southern Illinois and Drake, so protecting home court and stealing a road signature would go a long way toward erasing the blemishes while continued inconsistency will leave the bad losses as the dominant theme.
