Projection: need to automatically qualify

Bucknell's resume paints a picture of a team that has struggled against tougher opponents but managed to secure some victories within their conference, indicating potential. Key wins over teams like Holy Cross and Navy could be pivotal, showing they can compete at a decent level within the Patriot League. However, losses against stronger programs such as Kentucky and Maryland highlight significant defensive weaknesses, as well as inconsistent offensive performance, particularly against teams like St. Bonaventure and Colgate. To bolster their chances for an NCAA tournament appearance, Bucknell must not only secure a few more wins within the conference, especially against top rivals, but also ensure they remain competitive in non-conference matchups, which will be vital for credibility in the eyes of the selection committee.
