Projection: need to automatically qualify
Alabama State’s standing is rooted in a tidy but blemished body of work: the resume’s best moments include a true road upset at UAB and a runaway neutral-site win over IUPUI, while its worst moments are lopsided defeats at Florida State and at Colorado that leave lasting damage. The team has shown it can hang on the road in tight spots with close losses at New Mexico and at Air Force, but those competitive results do not erase the blowouts against higher-level foes. Upcoming road dates at Missouri, Cincinnati, Memphis and Mississippi State are the clearest opportunities to add signature wins and shift the committee’s view and the remainder of the conference slate gives chances to pile up safe victories and prove consistency away from home. The profile reads as a squad with flashes of quality but not enough sustained wins over strong opponents yet so the path forward is to convert those scheduled big-road tests into wins or to avoid damaging home slips against league rivals.
