Projection: need to automatically qualify

Dartmouth’s profile points toward needing the Ivy automatic because a handful of strong away performances, most notably at St Peter’s and at Harvard and a high-scoring road win at Cornell, are outweighed by damaging blemishes from tough trips to Florida, Wyoming and Colorado State and surprising setbacks to Marist and Appalachian State plus a heavy defeat at Sacred Heart. The best moments prove this team can win away from home and put up points while the worst results expose inconsistency and difficulty against higher level opponents. Upcoming Ivy dates with Columbia, Yale, Brown, Harvard, Penn, Princeton and Cornell are clear opportunities to build a résumé the committee will respect, especially by delivering road or neutral wins. Without a marquee nonconference scalp and with several bad losses on the ledger the surest route to the field runs through the conference automatic.
