Projection: likely out
Jacksonville is off to a shaky start with just one win so far and a mixed bag of results against its opponents. Losses to Florida and Furman, both solid teams, show that they may struggle against higher competition. While they managed to beat South Carolina State and Virginia Tech, the overall resume lacks quality wins, which is crucial for NCAA Tournament consideration. Upcoming games against Georgia and Florida Atlantic present critical opportunities to elevate their profile, but with low chances of success based on current rankings, the team must capitalize on the games they can control, particularly in conference play against the likes of Lipscomb and North Alabama. Consistency will be key; any slip-ups could further diminish their chances of making a postseason impact.
