Projection: need to automatically qualify

Iona's season has been marked by significant challenges, particularly in non-conference play where they faced tough opponents like West Virginia and Princeton, both of which resulted in losses that highlighted their weaknesses on both ends of the floor. The team's offense has struggled, ranking poorly overall, which was evident in their disappointing performances, such as the 86-point blowout against West Virginia and a tight loss to Indiana State. While they have secured some wins in conference play, including a critical victory against Siena and a strong showing against Sacred Heart, those performances may not be enough to earn an at-large bid without a deep run in their conference tournament. Overall, Iona's inconsistency and overall record put them in a position where they likely need to secure the conference championship to secure a spot in the NCAA tournament.
