Projection: need to automatically qualify

Presbyterian’s profile is built around solid league moments but damaging nonconference setbacks which leave the committee unconvinced an at-large invite is warranted. The Blue Hose showed they can win away from home with victories at Georgia State and UNC Asheville and bolstered their case with a neutral-site triumph over Radford and a tough home win over Charleston Southern, yet those highlights are outweighed by heavy losses at marquee opponents like UCLA and South Carolina and a string of road setbacks that rob the résumé of a signature win. With few quality victories on neutral courts and the worst results coming on the biggest stages, the only realistic path for Presbyterian into the field is to win the Big South tournament and secure the conference’s automatic bid.
