Projection: need to automatically qualify

Richmond's resume is not encouraging, with several concerning losses, particularly against teams like Charlotte and Auburn, which expose significant weaknesses in both their scoring and defensive capabilities. Their inability to secure wins against mid-range opponents, as shown by their losses to opponents like George Mason and St. Bonaventure, raises questions about their competitiveness in tight games. While victories over teams like Massachusetts and Duquesne showcase some potential, the overall inconsistency means they’ll likely need to make a strong push through the Atlantic 10 tournament to earn an automatic qualifier to bolster their chances of making the NCAA tournament. Their upcoming matchups against VCU and Dayton could be pivotal; wins there would improve their standing significantly, but losses could cement their fate as one of the season's disappointments.
