Projection: need to automatically qualify

Kansas State's current status shows promise but also highlights areas for concern. The early wins against New Orleans and Cleveland State were solid, yet they came against weaker foes, and a lost opportunity against LSU raises doubts about their competitiveness against top-tier teams. Their upcoming schedule is daunting, with several games against ranked opponents like St. John's and Cincinnati that will serve as key indicators of their strength. Wins in these matchups, particularly against competitive teams, will significantly bolster their resume as they seek to solidify their standing. Competing effectively against teams like TCU and Kansas will be crucial; victories in these contests could not only enhance their overall record but also impact their confidence and ranking going forward.
