Projection: need to automatically qualify

St. Bonaventure’s résumé shows flashes that make an at-large case plausible but also enough damaging results that the cleanest path to the NCAA tournament runs through the conference tournament. Neutral-site success against Bradley and road wins at Florida Atlantic and Buffalo prove the Bonnies can win away from home, yet a lopsided home defeat to Saint Louis and a string of conference setbacks to Richmond, Fordham and Saint Joseph’s have undercut that argument. A neutral loss to North Carolina highlights the program’s ceiling while also exposing inconsistency, and remaining home dates with Saint Joseph’s and Davidson along with road trips to Richmond, George Mason and George Washington are clear chances to erase bad results and strengthen the résumé before selection time.
