Projection: need to automatically qualify

East Carolina’s resume is shaky, primarily due to a lack of quality wins against stronger opponents and an overall inconsistent performance. The narrow victory against George Mason was a highlight, but losses to teams like Jacksonville State and UNC Wilmington expose vulnerabilities, particularly on offense where the team struggles against tougher defenses. Although they’ve picked up some wins against lower-ranked teams, including a significant victory over UAB, their defeat against both South Florida and Memphis illustrates how they can falter against even mid-level competition. With key upcoming games against higher-ranked opponents, East Carolina must capitalize on these matchups to bolster their tournament credentials.
