Projection: need to automatically qualify
Lindenwood looks like it will need to secure the Ohio Valley Conference automatic bid because its resume mixes a few true road wins and a neutral-site victory with a string of damaging losses that a committee will notice. The neutral win at Charleston So and wins away at Northern Illinois and Eastern Illinois prove the program can win outside its gym, but blowout defeats at Texas Tech and Saint Louis and a poor road night at Indiana along with blemishes against Alabama A&M, Missouri State, Arkansas Little Rock and SIUE leave the profile thin on signature victories. The remaining league slate, with trips to Southern Indiana and Morehead State and home chances against SIUE and Eastern Illinois among others, gives Lindenwood clear opportunities to erase those bad results, but until several of those results flip in its favor the safest path to the big dance is through the conference tournament.
