Projection: need to automatically qualify

Ohio’s resume mixes a few meaningful wins with several damaging defeats, and that split explains its standing. The profile is bolstered by a neutral-site victory over St Bonaventure, road wins at Buffalo and Central Michigan, and a steady home victory over Illinois State, but it is undermined by blowout road losses at St Mary’s and Louisville and a shocking home loss to Bethune-Cookman that calls the team’s consistency into question. With conference play still to finish, home dates against Toledo and Miami Ohio and a road trip to Massachusetts are clear opportunities to add the kind of road or neutral victories the committee rewards or to further damage the resume if those games go the wrong way.
