Morehead State’s resume is driven by bright moments and damaging road setbacks that explain its standing; a neutral-site victory over ULM, a road win at Southern Indiana and a home victory over Ark Little Rock serve as the program’s clearest highlights, but those are offset by heavy losses at Wake Forest, Georgia and Clemson along with difficult road defeats at Murray St, IUPUI and Presbyterian that blunt the impact of its top wins. The early slate forced true road tests against high-end opponents and the team has struggled to replicate home form away from its arena, so committee voters will balance the quality of those signature victories against the severity of the losses. Upcoming conference dates at SE Missouri St and Tennessee St, home games with W Illinois and E Illinois and additional meetings with SIUE and Lindenwood give the team concrete opportunities to replace damaging results with resume-building wins before league tournament play.
