Projection: need to automatically qualify
San Diego’s best moments — a home win over Washington State, an impressive road victory at UC San Diego and a competitive outing at home against Gonzaga — show the offense can hang with higher-profile opponents, but those flashes are overwhelmed by a string of damaging road losses at Washington, St Mary’s and Santa Clara and by a lack of signature neutral-site victories. With the résumé leaning the wrong way, the program’s clearest path to the NCAA field is to secure the West Coast Conference automatic berth, and the remaining opportunities at home against Loyola Marymount and on the road at Oregon State and Portland are where this team must prove it belongs.
