Projection: likely out

George Washington’s profile is built on a handful of eye-catching offensive outings and a neutral-site win over South Florida, but it’s been punctured by a string of damaging results that leave the committee wanting more proof of quality. The Colonials have shown they can score in different places with neutral wins over MTSU and a road victory at Army and they have solid home wins such as William & Mary, yet narrow neutral losses at Murray State and a shock defeat at McNeese State plus a home setback to Delaware undercut those positives. The loss at the neutral site to Florida highlights a gap with top-tier opponents and there is a shortage of road or neutral victories against respected league foes to offset the bad results. A meaningful stretch of conference games remains, including trips to St. Louis and VCU and home chances against La Salle and Rhode Island along with a meeting with Loyola-Chicago, and strong showings in those settings—especially on the road and neutral courts—are the clearest path to repairing the resume.
