Projection: need to automatically qualify
UMBC's resume currently lacks the necessary quality to secure an at-large bid, highlighted by a humbling loss to Penn State and close defeats against St. Peter's and Hampton. With an overall record that reflects minimal success against weaker competition, their best opportunity for improvement lies in upcoming conference matchups. The games against teams like NJIT and Binghamton will prove crucial, as victories there could significantly bolster their standing and potential for the America East tournament. However, they will need to navigate through tough contests against Vermont and Maine, where their chances of success seem murky, to truly elevate their profile in a competitive landscape.
