Projection: need to automatically qualify

Hampton has faced a challenging season where the highlights have been few and far between, with their struggles visible against high-caliber opposition. Their inability to consistently come out on top in closely contested games, including narrow losses to North Carolina A&T and Northeastern, indicates difficulties in clutch moments. Despite a couple of surprise upsets, like the victory over Towson, the Pirates have been plagued by defensive inefficiencies and offensive stagnation, as evidenced by lopsided defeats to strong teams like James Madison and Charleston. These performances reveal a team that seems outmatched when facing higher-tier competition, and it paints a picture of a squad that would need to make a monumental, against-the-odds run in its conference tournament to punch a ticket to the Big Dance.
