Projection: need to automatically qualify

Columbia’s résumé features eye‑catching road wins at Cornell and North Florida and a string of comfortable victories over midmajor opponents that show it can score away from home and hold serve in front of its own crowd, but the severity of losses at Connecticut and California and setbacks to Ivy rivals, including a home loss to Harvard and road defeats at Brown and Yale, undercut that case against top competition. The remaining Ivy slate, with home games against Penn and Princeton and return trips to those same foes plus final tests at Dartmouth, Brown, Yale and Harvard, gives Columbia clear chances to erase the damage, add resume‑building road wins and secure the conference’s automatic berth.
