Projection: need to automatically qualify

Memphis’s resume has clear high points in a statement home win over Baylor, a gritty neutral-site showing against Wake Forest, and a road victory at UAB that demonstrate the team can beat quality opponents, but those flashes are overwhelmed by ugly road drubbings at Louisville and at Utah State and a string of conference setbacks including losses to South Florida and East Carolina that cripple any at-large argument. Inconsistent results away from home and a neutral loss to Tulane reinforce the committee’s concern about this profile. The only secure path to the field for this group is to claim the conference’s automatic berth.
