Projection: need to automatically qualify
Florida A&M’s profile features a handful of reassuring wins at home over Jacksonville and Southern and road victories at Arkansas–Pine Bluff and Mississippi Valley State but those positives are swamped by heavy defeats at South Florida, UCF, Georgia, TCU and Georgia Tech that expose how the Rattlers struggle against higher-level opponents. The absence of a neutral-site statement win and the lopsided nature of those road losses leave the committee with little to reward outside of conference success, so the remaining slate against Alcorn State, Jackson State, Alabama A&M, Alabama State, Texas Southern, Prairie View and trips to Jackson State and Southern are the primary opportunities to repair the resume. Until those games deliver clear statement results, the practical route to the tournament runs through winning the conference crown.
