Projection: need to automatically qualify

LIU Brooklyn’s résumé is a classic mix of encouraging road wins and damaging slip-ups, with hard-fought victories at IUPUI, Air Force, Lehigh and Missouri State and a home triumph over James Madison proving the team can win away from its own floor, while heavy defeats at Notre Dame and Illinois, a close loss at Mississippi State and the home setback to Winthrop blunt the upside and eat into resume credibility. The road and neutral success they do have is meaningful because it shows they can handle travel, but those signature losses to power programs reduce the margin for error. A long conference slate awaits, including games against Mercyhurst, St Francis PA, Central Connecticut, Le Moyne, Stonehill, Wagner, New Haven and Chicago State plus a tough trip to Georgia, and those matchups will determine whether LIU can pile up the clean results a committee values or instead leave itself vulnerable to the consequences of earlier bad results.
