Projection: need to automatically qualify

Nicholls State's path to the NCAA tournament hinges heavily on their ability to perform exceptionally in the Southland Conference, highlighted by a weak overall resume bolstered only by a few wins against lower-tier teams. Their losses against more competitive programs like New Mexico and Cincinnati indicate significant gaps, especially on defense, which are reflected in their rankings. Upcoming games will be critical; victories against teams such as SF Austin and Lamar could reinforce their standing. However, they need to secure key wins to position themselves favorably, with a particular focus on avoiding further losses to teams like McNeese State and Texas A&M-Corpus Christi. Finding consistency in scoring, especially against teams with better defenses, will be crucial for any potential at-large consideration.
