Projection: need to automatically qualify

Missouri State’s profile reads like a team that has flashed quality but never built a résumé strong enough for an at-large call: their best moments include a neutral victory over Liberty and road wins at New Mexico State and UTEP, but those are swamped by heavy nonconference losses at Tulsa and Xavier and by damaging league road setbacks at WKU and Middle Tennessee. They also carry bad home results against Sam Houston State and Kennesaw that undercut any claim of consistency, and the schedule overall lacks marquee scalp to balance the poor outcomes away from their own floor. With few remaining chances to add a signature win, the practical avenue into the field is by earning the conference’s automatic berth through its tournament.
