Projection: need to automatically qualify

Incarnate Word’s profile is a mix of encouraging moments and damaging setbacks that explain its current placement: the neutral win over Southern Indiana and home victories against McNeese State and Northern Arizona are the résumé’s bright spots and show the team can close out winnable games, while tight showings at power conference sites such as Colorado State, Indiana and TCU illustrate a coachable squad that can compete on the road even when the scoreboard does not go its way. The low points — a heavy loss at Colorado State and several road defeats at mid‑major venues including New Orleans and Nicholls State — have created blemishes a committee will notice because there is no marquee road or neutral victory to offset those results. The slate ahead includes conference road dates at Lamar and SF Austin plus a trip to Southeastern Louisiana and a batch of home opportunities that are realistic chances to erase damage, add quality road wins and finish the regular season with a much cleaner résumé.
