Projection: need to automatically qualify

Green Bay’s resume reads like a team with flashes of quality that are repeatedly erased by damaging setbacks, so the safest route to the NCAA tournament is to secure the conference’s automatic bid. A neutral-site sweep of Massachusetts and Iona and a true road victory at Cleveland State show this roster can win outside its building, but a brutal trip to Kansas and a shockingly poor result at Campbell sit opposite those moments and create real doubt. Road defeats at Buffalo and Minnesota and ugly showings against Wright State and Oakland have undercut any claim to a résumé full of resume-defining wins, and that pattern leaves little margin for error. The regular-season finish offers a handful of final chances to change perception with road tests at Milwaukee, Oakland and Detroit and a home date with Youngstown State, but unless those games turn into signature road wins the committee is likely to view Green Bay as a team that needs to punch its ticket the old-fashioned way.
