Projection: need to automatically qualify

St. Joseph’s sits where it does because the Hawks have flashed the kind of road and neutral wins that committees like while accumulating a handful of brutal losses that undercut that promise. Their résumé is buoyed by tight neutral victories over Princeton and Temple and résumé-building road trips to Richmond and Loyola‑Chicago, yet it is blemished by blowouts at Virginia Tech and St. Louis and poor showings at Syracuse and UNLV that leave a lasting negative impression. The conference stretch still contains clear chances to improve with manageable home dates against La Salle and Fordham and a home meeting with George Washington, but a run of difficult road tests at St. Bonaventure, Rhode Island and Davidson are looming hurdles where success would cement their case and setbacks would deepen doubts, and that mix of signature moments, ugly losses, and remaining opportunity explains the projection.
