What it takes to make the NCAA tournament

There are two ways in. How qualifying works.

How many more wins it needs

Its last 8 games against D2 teams: how many it might win, and its NCAA chance in each case. A tie counts as half a win.

WinsHow likelyNCAA chance then
0 14% under 5%
1 33% under 5%
2 31% under 5%
3 16% under 5%
4 5% under 5%
5 1% –
6 under 1% –
7 under 1% –
8 (all) under 1% under 5%

– means too few simulated seasons to say. Which games are won matters as well as how many: wins over strong teams and away wins count for more.

If Goldey-Beacom wins all 8: its NPI would still fall short of the cut line, so it would also need to win the CACC tournament.

Rating over the season

Line: rating after each daily update. Shaded: likely range. Above 0 is better than an average D2 team.
