Projection: need to automatically qualify

Hawaii’s season has been a mixed bag, with significant challenges highlighting their resume. They suffered notable defeats against teams like North Carolina and Nebraska, which have left a mark on their credibility when facing tougher competition. While they have some solid wins against San Jose State and TAMU Corpus Christi, their overall performance in the Big West hasn’t been dominant enough to warrant an at-large bid. With upcoming games against consistently tougher opponents like UC Irvine and UC San Diego, Hawaii needs to leverage those matchups and secure victories to bolster their standing. Achieving success in these critical games is vital for their prospects, as their current trajectory suggests the only viable path to the tournament may be through winning the conference championship.
