Eastern Michigan’s resume features a signature road victory at Cincinnati and some authoritative home work, notably a dominant outing against Georgia State and a high‑scoring win over Oakland, but those bright spots are blunted by a string of ugly road losses, including the drubbing at Louisville and the lopsided trip to Central Michigan, plus a handful of razor‑thin conference defeats that make the profile fragile. The committee will focus on the scarcity of meaningful wins away from home, so the remaining slate — the home date with Central Michigan and the road tests at Toledo and Buffalo along with home matches against Miami Ohio and Bowling Green — represent the clearest ways to repair the resume. Take care of the home game and seize a resume‑building road result and the Cincinnati win starts to look like the foundation of an at‑large case; fail to do that and the heavy losses and spotty road record will continue to define how the team is viewed.
