Projection: need to automatically qualify

Loyola MD faces an uphill battle for NCAA tournament consideration, especially given its weak performance against higher-ranked opponents, highlighted by significant losses to teams like VCU and Boston College. While they have secured victories against lower-tier schools like Hampton and American University, their overall inconsistency is concerning. Their defense has struggled in key matchups, particularly against teams that can exploit their vulnerabilities, as seen in the close loss to Navy and their inability to secure wins against better conference rivals. To enhance their playoff hopes, they must capitalize on remaining opportunities in the final stretch of the season, particularly against teams with similar or lower rankings, while also aiming to make a deep run in their conference tournament.
