Projection: need to automatically qualify

Kent’s resume is underwhelming for at-large consideration, primarily due to a weak strength of schedule and limited quality wins. Their only notable victories come against mid-major teams like Towson and Kennesaw State, while losing to powerhouses such as Auburn and UC Irvine highlights their challenges against higher-level competition. Upcoming games against teams like Alabama and Akron provide crucial opportunities to bolster their profile, especially if they can secure road wins. However, losses in these matchups could further cement their reliance on winning the Mid-American Conference tournament to gain a spot in the NCAA Tournament.
