Projection: need to automatically qualify
When we glance at Navy's season, it's clear they've been treading water against a schedule that doesn't turn heads. They've snagged victories against some of the softer targets within their conference, but they've come up short when stepping outside the Patriot League or facing its top teams. Notably, a defeat at the hands of a solid UC San Diego squad and a loss to Colgate—a team at the forefront of their conference—underscore their struggle against stronger opponents. An absence of signature wins combined with losses to teams at the lower end of the rankings, such as Loyola MD, contributes to a résumé that doesn't inspire confidence for an at-large bid. This means their path to March Madness more than likely hinges on capturing the Patriot League Tournament title, a road that demands consistency and stepping up against the top-tier teams they've previously stumbled against.
