Projection: need to automatically qualify
Fresno State’s resume reads like a team caught between promising nonconference moments and damaging setbacks, with a neutral-site rout of Pepperdine and gritty wins over Utah Valley and Sam Houston State-style opponents providing its brightest evidence while a heavy loss at Arkansas and upsetting defeats to SC Upstate and Cal State Bakersfield undercut that case; committee voters will note the lack of road victories over high-end foes and will weigh upcoming chance to prove it away at San Diego State and at Utah State and New Mexico against home chances versus Boise State and San Jose State and a more favorable trip to Air Force, meaning this stretch of league play will determine whether the profile can accumulate meaningful road or neutral wins or simply add more blemishes.
