Projection: need to automatically qualify

Presbyterian's tournament hopes hinge on securing their conference's automatic bid, as their overall performance has left them with a lackluster resume. The team's losses against the likes of South Carolina and NC State showcase issues with competitiveness against stronger opponents, while narrow victories over teams like Wofford and Monmouth highlight their difficulties in consistently closing out games. Additionally, their inability to secure wins against fellow conference rivals, such as UNC Asheville and Longwood, complicates their standing in the Big South. Upcoming contests, particularly against Gardner-Webb and Charleston Southern, present critical opportunities to bolster their credentials; however, any slip-ups could diminish their chances even further. Ultimately, success in the conference tournament is their clearest path to a bid, given the challenges faced throughout the regular season.
