Projection: need to automatically qualify

East Texas A&M is facing a steep climb to the NCAA tournament without significant improvement. Their record against higher-ranked teams has been disheartening; losses to Iowa, Texas A&M, and Oklahoma highlight struggles against quality opposition. Defensively, they’ve often faltered, which has led to high-scoring games against both formidable and mid-level opponents. Victories over teams like McNeese State and Southern University provide small pockets of success, but a lack of consistency puts them at risk. Upcoming matchups against fellow Southland teams present a crucial opportunity to bolster their resume; games against Lamar and SFA will be critical to demonstrate they can compete effectively in conference play. However, with such variability in performance, a path to automatic qualification through the conference tournament is their most realistic hope.
