Projection: need to automatically qualify

New Hampshire’s profile reads like a team that needs the conference’s automatic berth because its few high points—a road win at Maine and home victories over Boston University and Stonehill—are outweighed by brutal losses at major programs such as Clemson, Providence, Nebraska and Saint Louis and by defeats on the road at George Mason and Harvard; narrow setbacks in hostile arenas at UMBC, NJIT, Dartmouth and Fairfield show fight but they do not substitute for a signature neutral or top-tier road victory that would swing a committee’s eye. The remainder of the schedule is mostly conference opponents with a helpful stretch of home dates but a season-defining trip to Vermont still looming, so unless New Hampshire turns those conference chances into wins it will be relying on the America East automatic spot to reach the NCAA Tournament.
