Projection: need to automatically qualify

Jacksonville State’s résumé features a signature home win over Coastal Car and a notable road victory at ETSU, but it is undermined by damaging losses such as the neutral-site defeat to North Dakota State and road setbacks at Arkansas State and Georgia State alongside a home loss to South Alabama. Defensive steadiness has kept the team in games while offensive inconsistency has produced ugly results, and those bad outcomes away from friendly settings erode the résumé’s credibility. The toughest remaining tests come on the road at Liberty and at New Mexico State with another difficult trip to Western Kentucky, while home dates against Florida International and Louisiana Tech and a neutral chance against Delaware offer clearer opportunities to rebuild momentum. That mix of a few quality moments, several harmful results away from home, and a handful of upcoming high-leverage chances explains why Jacksonville State’s standing feels precarious and why wins in those key spots will be decisive.
