Projection: need to automatically qualify

Princeton's resume shows a mix of solid wins and tough losses, which leaves them in a precarious position for at-large consideration. Victories over teams like Rutgers and Akron demonstrate their potential to compete at a higher level, but losses to Yale and Cornell highlight vulnerabilities that could be exploited in critical games ahead. Their recent victories against weaker competition bolster their confidence but lack the depth needed to secure a strong tournament bid without an automatic qualifier. To improve their standing, Princeton must take advantage of upcoming contests, especially against tougher opponents like Yale and the games against Penn and Harvard, where winning will be crucial in proving their legitimacy as a contender.
