Projection: need to automatically qualify

The projection that Green Bay needs the conference’s automatic bid holds up because the resume mixes a few meaningful wins away from home and at neutral sites with damaging, lopsided defeats that a committee will notice, neutral wins over Massachusetts and Iona and road victories at Cleveland State and IUPUI showing the team can beat respectable opponents outside its building while a home win over UC Santa Barbara and a hard-fought win over Northern Kentucky provide quality flashes, but those positives are offset by a blowout at Kansas and heavy losses at Campbell and Oakland plus poor road showings at Wright State and Buffalo and a puzzling home loss to Robert Morris that undermine any at-large argument, and with upcoming conference games at home and on the road against familiar opponents the team’s remaining chance to change its fate is to string together wins in league play and secure the automatic berth.
