Projection: need to automatically qualify
Davidson's résumé is anchored by meaningful wins away from campus and on neutral floors — the road victory at Loyola-Chicago, the neutral triumph over Boston College and the nonconference scalp of Washington State — yet those bright spots are offset by brutal showings on big stages, namely the lopsided trip to Kansas and the neutral loss at Utah State, along with a damaging home defeat to Rhode Island that underlines inconsistency. A competitive outing against St Mary's shows the defense can hang with upper-tier opponents when it is dialed in, but conference play has mixed clean home wins with unsettling slips. The remaining Atlantic Ten slate gives clear paths to improve by protecting home dates such as Fordham and La Salle and by chasing resume-changing road results at true league venues like Dayton, Richmond or George Mason. The committee will value road and neutral success above all, and some signature outcomes away from campus would turn the good wins already on the ledger into a resume that closes comfortably.
