Projection: need to automatically qualify
The resume for Drexel reveals a couple of standout elements that anchor the team's tournament hopes. Their victory over a highly-regarded Villanova squad is the shining jewel of their season, showcasing their ability to take down basketball royalty when meeting head-to-head. However, they also carry the burden of some less-than-stellar losses against lesser competition, such as the disappointing performances against Old Dominion and La Salle. Additionally, the Dragons didn't capitalize fully against higher-ranked opponents like Princeton and College of Charleston, leaving those as missed opportunities to bolster their case. Their defense shows solid tenacity, reflected in a stingy points against record, and that could be their leverage in tightly contested games. Still, the overall lack of consistency and strength of schedule leaves the team needing to punch their ticket with an automatic bid by capturing their conference tournament crown, as their current body of work likely doesn't sway the committee for an at-large bid.
