Projection: need to automatically qualify

North Florida's season presents a mixed bag, but the reality is that they face significant challenges for an at-large bid. Wins against South Carolina and Georgia Tech indicate they can compete at a respectable level, but their overall performance against better teams, highlighted by a blowout loss to Florida, raises serious concerns. The team has also struggled against conference rivals and suffered several tough losses, including a close defeat to North Alabama and a bad loss to Bellarmine, which could haunt them come selection time. With a tough road ahead, including matchups against other middle-tier conference teams, North Florida must capitalize on every opportunity to ensure they secure the automatic bid if they want to avoid being on the outside looking in during tournament selection.
