Projection: need to automatically qualify

Alabama A&M is facing an uphill battle for an at-large bid, as their current resume is quite weak given their overall record and performance in early-season games. The loss to Tennessee State, a lower-tier opponent in their rankings, and a severe defeat against Georgia highlight significant vulnerabilities, particularly in both offense and defense. Upcoming matchups against teams like Arkansas Pine Bluff and Mississippi Valley State—who are also struggling—are critical. If Alabama A&M can secure victories in these games, it may boost their standing within the Southwestern Athletic Conference, but they must also show competiveness against higher-ranked opponents like Samford and Georgia Tech to improve their overall profile. Winning these key in-conference games is essential if they hope to qualify for the NCAA tournament through an automatic bid.
