Projection: need to automatically qualify

South Alabama's résumé features a gritty road victory at Toledo and a hard-fought neutral win over New Mexico State, and road victories at Arkansas State and Southern Miss show the team can get it done away from home. Those bright moments are offset by a lopsided loss at ETSU and a string of damaging results both on the road and at home, including setbacks at UAB and Marshall and losses to North Texas and Louisiana, which leave little margin for error and make winning the Sun Belt tournament the most reliable path into the NCAA field. The closing stretch of home dates against Texas State, Troy and ULM and one more meeting with Southern Miss gives the team a clear chance to strengthen its case before the league event.
