Projection: need to automatically qualify

Pacific’s résumé is built on comfortable neutral-site wins over Stony Brook and Jacksonville and a useful road victory at Air Force but it is dented by a lopsided trip to Florida Atlantic and a narrow loss at Nevada, which leaves very little margin for error. Lacking a marquee nonconference scalp, the team’s path upward runs through statement road performances at BYU, Gonzaga and Washington State and through protecting winnable home dates against St Mary's and Oregon State; if Pacific can avoid more damaging losses away from home and collect a couple of those higher-profile conference victories it will change the narrative, while continued splits and a couple more bad results would leave the résumé precarious.
