Projection: need to automatically qualify

Abilene Christian’s résumé is built on a few solid mid‑major moments—a home win over New Mexico State, a gritty road victory at Pepperdine and a neutral-site triumph over UT San Antonio—but those highlights are undermined by damaging, high‑profile setbacks, most notably the blowout at Arizona and the neutral loss to William & Mary along with tough road defeats at BYU and SF Austin. Inconsistency away from home has been a recurring theme, with additional slips at Texas State and UT Arlington softening the profile, and that mix of quality wins and alarming losses explains why the team sits where it does. The remaining Western Athletic slate offers clear opportunities to repair the resume through home games against Cal Baptist, Utah Tech and Southern Utah and through rivalry showdowns with Tarleton State, yet road tests at Utah Valley and at Cal Baptist are meaningful chances to prove the road and neutral success a committee looks for.
