Projection: need to automatically qualify

Boston University’s path to the NCAA tournament hinges on its ability to improve its standings in the highly competitive Patriot League. With several tough losses, including games against Northeastern and UCLA, the team has struggled against higher-ranked opponents, which is reflected in their low computer rankings. Their recent win against Bucknell and competitive outings like the close loss to Colgate show potential, but inconsistency, particularly on offense, remains a significant concern. Upcoming games against Lehigh and Lafayette will be crucial; winning those could bolster their resume significantly, but another slip could severely diminish their chances of earning an at-large bid.
