Projection: need to automatically qualify
LIU Brooklyn's early season performance raises significant concerns about their NCAA tournament prospects. The team struggled against Mississippi and Cal Baptist, both of which exposed defensive weaknesses and a lack of offensive efficiency. The upcoming matchups against teams like Charlotte and Winthrop are critical; securing wins in these games would be vital for building momentum. Furthermore, games against fellow conference opponents will be essential for establishing a strong standing in the Northeast Conference, as the road to an auto-bid hinges on performing well against both stronger and weaker teams. If they can turn around their fortunes quickly and start piling up wins, they may stay in the conversation, but as of now, they face an uphill battle.
