Projection: need to automatically qualify
Alabama A&M's projection as a team that would need an automatic qualification to punch their ticket to the Big Dance comes down to a few key factors. Their overall record is poor in what's typically seen as a lower-tier conference, and the quality wins are simply not there. They suffered heavy defeats against stronger teams like Auburn, Lipscomb, and Georgia Tech, showing they struggle to compete with higher-caliber opposition. Even within their own conference, their mixed results, including losses to Texas Southern and Grambling, paint a picture of inconsistency. While they've shown sparks of potential with wins over teams like Texas Southern in the conference tournament, the inconsistency and the lack of dominant performances against stronger opponents means they'll have to rely on winning their conference tournament to grab that automatic NCAA berth.
