Projection: need to automatically qualify
Dartmouth's current standing is precarious due to a very limited schedule and a lack of significant wins. Their victory over Sacred Heart doesn't provide much weight, given Sacred Heart's own struggles. The losses to SUNY Albany and Boston University highlight defensive weaknesses that may hinder their performance against tougher opponents, particularly as their schedule intensifies. Upcoming games against teams like Boston College and Notre Dame present critical opportunities for Dartmouth to boost their credentials, but these matchups look daunting based on the projected win probabilities. Furthermore, facing Ivy League rivals like Penn and Princeton will be essential for solidifying their standing, especially since these games carry significant implications for conference standings. Overall, the team must improve their performance drastically if they hope to earn a spot in the tournament otherwise, they are mainly looking at the path of automatic qualification through the Ivy League championship.
