Projection: need to automatically qualify

Georgia Tech needs the conference tournament because the resume has flashes but not enough marquee proof: the road win at NC State and the competitive outing at Duke are the program’s best moments, yet neutral-site setbacks to DePaul and Drake and a damaging loss at Pittsburgh blunt that momentum and much of the rest of the schedule is filled with wins over lesser opponents that do little to offset conference losses at Miami and Virginia Tech and an early stumble at Georgia. Upcoming home tests against North Carolina and Florida State and true road trips to California, Stanford and Notre Dame offer clear chances to add the kind of signature victories the committee prizes, but absent another road or neutral breakthrough the most reliable path to the NCAA field is to secure the automatic bid.
