Projection: need to automatically qualify

Mercer's season shows a mixed bag of results, with key wins coming against teams like Chattanooga and UNC Greensboro, which help boost their resume. However, several glaring losses, particularly to teams like South Carolina and ETSU, hinder their chances for at-large consideration. Their defense is a significant weakness, ranking poorly and contributing to several defeats, especially against higher-ranked opponents like DePaul and Miami OH. The upcoming games against ETSU and Western Carolina present critical opportunities; winning those could enhance their standing considerably, but further losses would likely solidify the need for a conference tournament championship to secure a spot in the NCAA tournament.
