Projection: need to automatically qualify

Syracuse’s season has been a mixed bag, marked by inconsistent performances and a challenging schedule that has them swimming upstream in the postseason conversation. Their losses, particularly to high-caliber teams like Maryland and Duke, highlight their vulnerability, especially on defense where they have struggled significantly. However, there have also been some bright spots with wins against teams like Notre Dame and Pittsburgh that show they can compete at a level necessary for tournament consideration. Still, they must capitalize on upcoming games against NC State and Virginia Tech, as victories in these could help solidify their potential for an automatic bid, while another setback could further jeopardize their already precarious position.
