Projection: need to automatically qualify

Campbell’s résumé reads like a classic midmajor with respectable home and neutral wins but bruising road defeats that limit its ceiling; the program has taken care of business against teams such as Western Michigan, Ball State and Wisconsin–Green Bay and even picked up a neutral-site victory over UT Arlington, yet those positives are masked by ugly losses away at Wisconsin, Gonzaga, Wake Forest, Minnesota, West Virginia, Penn State and Weber State that expose an inability to win on the road against high-major competition. The committee will notice that the best moments came at home or on a neutral floor while the worst moments arrived in hostile arenas, so the path forward hinges on performance in league play. Upcoming matchups offer plenty of chances to build a stronger case with home games against Monmouth, Drexel, Hampton and a visit from Northeastern, while true resume enhancement will require road victories at the likes of Hofstra, William & Mary, UNC Wilmington and Charleston. Until Campbell can turn one or more of those road tests into wins, the weight of its heavy losses will continue to temper the value of its solid midmajor triumphs.
