Projection: need to automatically qualify

St Peter's résumé is driven by a mix of genuine road successes and damaging blowouts that together explain why the team sits in the automatic-bid conversation. Road wins at Quinnipiac and at Fairfield prove the Peacocks can win away from their own court while routine victories over Merrimack, Canisius and Niagara offer little résumé lift, and crushing losses at Seton Hall, VCU and Georgetown and the home drubbing by Dartmouth are the kind of blemishes selection officials notice. The remainder of the MAAC slate, with multiple meetings against Iona, a road trip to Merrimack, a home date with Mt St Mary's and road tests at Rider, Manhattan and Siena, gives St Peter's clear chances to replace bad results with meaningful wins away from home. With that balance of occasional resume-boosting road victories, too many low-value wins and a handful of definitive losses, the most reliable path to the national field runs through strong showings down the stretch and a deep conference-tournament run.
