Projection: need to automatically qualify

Kennesaw’s profile shows a team with clear upside but glaring vulnerabilities, and that explains its placement. The resume features meaningful wins away and at neutral sites, including the road victory at Florida A&M, the neutral win over Rice, and the tough road result at FGCU, which give the committee evidence the offense can perform outside the friendly gym. Those bright spots are offset by a damaging loss to South Florida and a neutral defeat to Oral Roberts that expose defensive lapses and leave the club short on signature victories. The remaining slate presents a mix of manageable home dates and true chances to change the conversation, notably the neutral test against Alabama and trips to established league road opponents such as Liberty and MTSU, and until Kennesaw backs up its offensive flashes with a convincing result in those rugged settings the resume will read as promising but incomplete.
