Projection: need to automatically qualify

Denver’s profile is built around road victories at Montana St and at Colorado St and a home win over Missouri KC that show it can win away from home, but those bright spots are offset by lopsided losses at Arizona and at Wyoming and by damaging defeats to CS Fullerton, Idaho St, Tulsa and UT San Antonio that make the resume look inconsistent. Close losses at Washington and at Seattle demonstrate competitiveness but do not deliver the signature quality wins that command attention. The remaining league stretch offers clear chances to change the picture with road or neutral results at S Dakota St and at N Dakota St and with wins in matchups against Oral Roberts and North Dakota, while protecting home court will be essential. If Denver avoids more damaging outcomes and converts the winnable conference dates, the earlier road victories will carry more weight, but for now the combination of a tough early slate and those poor losses explains the cautious evaluation.
