Projection: need to automatically qualify

Arkansas Little Rock's season has been a challenge, highlighted by their struggles in non-conference play. Losses against stronger opponents like Illinois and Arkansas showcased their weaknesses, particularly on offense, where they often falter. While they’ve shown some resilience with wins against teams lower in the rankings, such as UT San Antonio and Tulsa, the overall quality of their wins is insufficient to build a strong tournament resume. The upcoming games against fellow conference teams like Tennessee State and Southern Indiana offer opportunities to bolster their standing, but these matchups are critical as they need to accumulate victories to enhance their chances of an automatic qualification. Their defensive efficiency has been a bright spot, but without significant improvements on offense and key wins in the conference, they find themselves in a precarious position.
