Projection: need to automatically qualify

Cal Poly’s profile features a handful of meaningful wins away from home at Utah, Seattle and Cal State Fullerton that demonstrate the program can beat quality opponents on the road, but those highlights are undercut by damaging losses such as blowouts at UCLA and at UC Santa Barbara and unexpected setbacks to Northern Arizona and at home against UC Riverside which make the overall body of work uneven. Road success has been intermittent even with solid wins at Bakersfield and Riverside, so the practical path to the NCAA field runs through the Big West tournament where a conference title would erase the resume deficiencies the committee will focus on.
