Projection: need to automatically qualify

Alcorn St’s résumé is anchored by a lone neutral-site victory over Indiana State but was largely undone by brutal road dates at major-conference arenas like Florida State, LSU and Iowa State that exposed clear struggles away from home. Those nonconference results leave the profile with almost no quality wins and visible holes that a suite of conference games cannot fully erase, because the remaining slate is concentrated against SWAC opponents such as Southern and Texas Southern and therefore offers plenty of chances to pile up victories but limited opportunities for a signature scalp. With heavy defeats at hostile power-conference venues dominating the body of work, the clearest route to postseason certainty is to win the conference title and thereby neutralize the damage from the nonconference campaign.
