Projection: likely out
Rhode Island's resume reveals significant weaknesses, particularly in their defensive metrics and inconsistent performance against similarly ranked teams. They've secured wins against weaker opponents like Fairfield and Holy Cross, but their losses to teams like Brown and George Washington raise concerns about their ability to compete at a higher level. With challenging matchups ahead, particularly against VCU and Davidson, these games represent crucial opportunities for the Rams. However, their struggles in close contests and a reliance on scoring against lesser teams make it difficult to assert they will earn a tournament bid unless they can significantly bolster their win total and improve their defensive efficiency.
