Projection: need to automatically qualify
St. Joseph's has had a mixed season, demonstrating potential with notable wins against Villanova and Texas Tech, but their lack of consistency, particularly with losses to Central Connecticut State and a weaker Navy team, raises concerns. The team's defensive struggles are evident, with rankings indicating they’ve allowed too many points, underscoring vulnerabilities against tougher opponents. Upcoming contests against teams like VCU and Dayton will be critical; losses there could further diminish their standing, while victories would provide a much-needed boost in credibility. They need a strong finish to avoid relying on the automatic qualification route, as their current resume doesn't favor at-large consideration.
