Projection: need to automatically qualify

Central Conn’s profile reads like a team that can beat good opponents on the road but has not collected the kind of signature neutral-site wins that attract an at-large berth, with its brightest moments being road victories at Boston College and Rutgers and a dramatic home win over Sacred Heart while its resume is marred by heavy losses at Quinnipiac, Seton Hall and Northeastern and a damaging home defeat to Fairfield; with the remainder of the schedule filled with league and lower-division opponents such as Wagner, LIU Brooklyn, Chicago State, New Haven, F Dickinson, Le Moyne, Mercyhurst and St Francis PA the team can certainly pad its win total but has limited opportunities to erase those bad losses, so the selection committee’s clearest path to the NCAA tournament is through the conference’s automatic qualifier.
