Projection: need to automatically qualify

Detroit’s profile is defined by a bruising nonconference slate that produced lopsided road losses at Notre Dame, Michigan State and Illinois-Chicago, damage that the Horizon League résumé only partly repairs; the team does have resume-building wins at Cleveland State and Oakland, home victories over Wisconsin-Milwaukee and Northern Kentucky, and a neutral-site triumph against Robert Morris, but those bright spots are countered by road defeats to Northern Kentucky and Robert Morris and narrow setbacks at Wright State and Purdue Fort Wayne, leaving its at-large hopes thin and its clearest path to the national tournament through winning the Horizon League tournament.
