Projection: need to automatically qualify

Delaware has shown it can win in hostile places, with road victories at George Washington, New Mexico State and Missouri State that give the staff something to point to, but those bright spots are undermined by crushing defeats such as the rout at Louisiana Tech and the one-sided loss earlier to New Mexico State plus uncomfortable trips to BYU and a neutral-site setback to Southern Illinois that expose a lack of consistent quality. The profile is littered with tight conference games and a handful of respectable league wins, yet the program lacks a sustained body of signature victories and too often has been rolled by stronger opponents, so there is little chance the committee will reward the resume without the safety net of the conference’s automatic bid earned in the league tournament.
