Projection: need to automatically qualify

Dartmouth's chances of making the NCAA tournament hinge on their ability to secure a strong finish in the Ivy League, especially given their mixed results in non-conference play. They've demonstrated some capability, like a solid win against Boston College, but the losses to teams like Boston University and Notre Dame, especially by significant margins, highlight some major vulnerabilities. Their defense has struggled significantly, evidenced by their inability to contain opponents, leading to high-scoring losses. Upcoming matchups against Yale and Princeton will be pivotal; winning at least one of those could provide a critical boost to their resume, while dropping those games would further diminish their chances.
