Projection: need to automatically qualify

Towson's resume has some texture, shaped by a robust defense that consistently poses problems for opponents, notably revealed in their victory over a strong Col Charleston team. However, offensively there's clear room for improvement, as underscored by losses to teams like Colorado and North Texas, matchups which could have been opportunities to showcase their prowess. Success in those games would have been statement wins that might mitigate their offensive ranking concerns. Their overall record and a few dips against lower-ranked teams, such as the loss to Hampton, hover over their profile. For a more assured spot without reliance on an automatic bid, Towson would have benefited from more high-caliber, non-conference wins and a stronger offensive showing throughout the season. Looking ahead, winning their conference tournament will be critical to punching their ticket to the dance, as the at-large berth seems unlikely in the shadow of such offensive limitations and missed chances to claim those impact wins that turn heads come Selection Sunday.
