Projection: need to automatically qualify

Coppin State’s résumé makes it reliant on an automatic berth because its only resume-building victories came on the conference trail and away at Rider, at NC Central and at South Carolina State while its nonconference slate is marred by lopsided losses at major-conference sites such as VCU, West Virginia, Liberty and Georgetown and neutral setbacks to Maryland and South Florida, which together leave the selection committee with scant evidence of quality road or neutral-site wins. The team has shown it can grind out tight road finishes and record home wins against conference peers like Delaware State, but those results read as baseline competence rather than signature résumé items. Remaining regular-season games at Howard and Morgan State and home dates with Maryland Eastern Shore and Norfolk State are opportunities to build momentum, yet the clearest path to the NCAA field is winning the conference tournament.
