Projection: need to automatically qualify
FGCU's chances for an NCAA tournament bid hinge heavily on their ability to dominate the Atlantic Sun Conference, as their overall resume is lacking strong wins. While the victories against teams like Florida International and North Alabama provide some hope, losses to St. Bonaventure and TCU highlight weaknesses in their performance against higher-caliber competition. Their offensive struggles, particularly evident in losses to E Kentucky and UNC Greensboro, underscore the need to improve scoring efficiency, while defensive lapses, especially against teams such as Furman and Jacksonville, further complicate their postseason prospects. To enhance their standing, FGCU must secure wins against quality opponents in the conference and avoid any slip-ups against weaker teams, as each game now serves as crucial for their playoff aspiration.
