Projection: need to automatically qualify
Queens has flashed its offensive ceiling with high-scoring wins and by winning on the road at Jacksonville, North Florida, FGCU and Stetson, plus authoritative home victories over Sacred Heart and Gardner Webb, but those positives are overwhelmed by brutal defeats at Villanova, Virginia, Auburn, Arkansas and Wake Forest that leave the nonconference résumé without a signature scalp and expose clear defensive shortcomings. The absence of a meaningful victory over a top opponent combined with multiple lopsided losses makes an at-large case fragile. That reality pushes the focus onto the conference slate and the league tournament because upcoming road dates at Bellarmine and Cent Arkansas and home opportunities against Jacksonville and North Florida can polish the profile but are unlikely to erase the damage without winning the conference crown.
