Projection: need to automatically qualify
Loyola Maryland has a challenging road ahead, with an overall record that leaves little room for error. Their losses to Columbia and VCU highlight defensive vulnerabilities, as both games featured significant point differentials against stronger opponents. While the win over NJIT shows potential, facing teams like Boston College and VCU exposed their weaknesses, particularly on offense. Upcoming games, such as their matchups with Navy and Lehigh, provide opportunities to bolster their resume. However, victories against the likes of Colgate and American University are essential to improve their standing within the Patriot League. Consistency will be key, but they're currently positioned to need a strong conference tournament showing to make the NCAA field.
