Projected seed: 14 (automatic qualifier)

Kennesaw’s profile pairs a string of resume-defining wins, including victories over Liberty, Louisiana Tech and multiple scalps of WKU along with a home win over New Mexico State and neutral-site triumphs in the league setting, with a cluster of damaging defeats away and in nonconference play such as road losses at Delaware and Jacksonville State and heavy setbacks to South Florida and Alabama. Those contrasting themes show the program can beat quality opponents on its floor and on neutral courts yet struggles to deliver consistently on the road and has enough poor results that the committee will view the resume as vulnerable for an at-large call. With their best moments proving they can compete with strong teams and their worst moments showing too many avoidable setbacks, the surest path to the NCAA tournament is to secure the conference’s automatic berth.
