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 under 1% –
1 3% under 5%
2 11% under 5%
3 25% under 5%
4 30% under 5%

8 (all) under 1% about 70%

– 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 Seton Hill wins all 8: its NPI clears the cut line in 70% of simulated seasons, without needing the conference title.
