Projection: need to automatically qualify
Kennesaw's current resume is fraught with challenges, primarily stemming from a lackluster defensive showing this season, which is a significant concern when looking at tournament viability. They have managed to secure a handful of victories against lower-tier opponents like Presbyterian and Abilene Christian, but losses against better competition, such as UC Irvine and Cal Baptist, raise red flags. Upcoming matchups are critical; wins against tougher foes like Liberty and Sam Houston State are essential for lifting their profile. With a mixed bag of chances against several mid-level teams, Kennesaw needs to capitalize on these games to establish a credible tournament resume and rely on a strong tournament showing in Conference USA to secure a dancing ticket.
