Projection: need to automatically qualify
UC Davis's projection for the Big Dance hinges heavily on an automatic bid by clinching their conference tourney, because their overall body of work lacks statement wins that catch the committee's eyes. While they've shown they can handle business within their league, evidenced by a strong finish and victories against teams like UC Irvine and Long Beach State, losses to UC Riverside and CS Bakersfield indicate inconsistency. Especially concerning are their out-of-conference performances, with losses to stronger programs like Nevada and Oregon State undercutting their resume. Without quality non-conference wins or a high-caliber strength of schedule, the Aggies' route to the brackets is pretty straightforward: win the conference tournament or bust.
