Projection: need to automatically qualify

Lamar’s profile reads like a team that can beat quality mid-majors on the road but has too many damaging results to offer a comfortable at-large case: road wins at ULM and Montana and a strong outing at Northwestern Louisiana demonstrate the program’s ability to win away from home, yet home setbacks to TAM C. Christi and UTRGV plus a neutral-site loss to Oakland and losses at McNeese State and Nebraska Omaha create blemishes that committees penalize. Losses at TCU and San Diego State show they couldn’t convert a nonconference chance against a power opponent into a resume-changing signature, so the most realistic way to erase those bad results is to take care of business in league play; upcoming road dates at Nicholls and New Orleans and home opportunities against Incarnate Word and Houston Christian give clear chances to rebuild momentum, but without a new marquee win the cleanest path to the tournament runs through winning the conference postseason.
