Projection: need to automatically qualify

Ohio's résumé is defined by a clear split between a couple of quality moments and a string of damaging setbacks, with the Illinois State victory and a solid home win over Maine standing out as proof the team can finish close games while a pair of road blowouts at Saint Mary's and at Louisville and ugly nonconference losses to Arkansas State and Bethune‑Cookman have left a mark. Neutral‑site defeats to George Mason and Loyola Marymount reinforce the committee's concern about the team's ability to win away from home, so the most meaningful opportunities ahead come in the remaining nonconference neutral game against St. Bonaventure and in league road tests at the likes of Toledo, Kent, and Buffalo; home chances against Akron and Northern Illinois can help clean up the ledger but will not erase the damage unless Ohio follows with quality results in hostile environments.
