Projection: need to automatically qualify
Winthrop's resume shows potential, but a lack of impactful victories is a major concern. Their wins against Ark Little Rock and William & Mary illustrate some offensive capability, but the close nature of the win over William & Mary, coupled with a tough loss to Virginia Tech, raises questions about their consistency. Upcoming matchups against teams like Louisville and Indiana present critical opportunities. However, their current positioning in computer rankings and the necessity of a favorable showing in conference play suggest that automatic qualification through the Big South may be their most realistic path to the tournament. Consistent performance in these key games, especially against lower-ranked opponents, will be essential for bolstering their case.
