Projection: need to automatically qualify

Queens NC’s profile reads like a team that can light up the scoreboard at home against mid- and low-major opponents such as Gardner-Webb, Sacred Heart and South Carolina State but has been exposed in hostile environments, taking lopsided losses at Villanova, Virginia, Arkansas, Auburn and Wake Forest and dropping a neutral game against Winthrop. Those heavy road and neutral defeats undermine the value of its high-scoring home results because the defense has struggled away from its gym and there are no signature wins away from home to balance the résumé. The remainder of the Atlantic Sun slate—road tests at Jacksonville, North Florida and FGCU and a cluster of important conference home dates including Jacksonville, North Florida and Lipscomb—represents the only clear path to repair the résumé, so how Queens performs in those environments will determine whether the committee can overlook the earlier damage.
