Projection: need to automatically qualify

Bryant’s résumé reads like a team with a couple of useful home wins against Dartmouth and Stonehill but no signature road victory to quiet doubts, and its most damaging moments came in true tests on the road against Connecticut and Virginia Tech plus lopsided defeats at Georgia Tech and Siena. Competitive showings at Harvard and Iona suggest the group can hang in tighter games, but those efforts stop short of a marquee scalp and the nonconference slate otherwise leaves the committee with little evidence of upside. The America East run offers clear chances to change the conversation with meaningful wins at the likes of Vermont, UMBC and MA Lowell and against conference rivals at home and away, and a strong sequence there is the practical way to flip perceptions. Until that happens the profile will be defined by modest home victories offset by a string of difficult road losses.
