Projection: need to automatically qualify

Southern Indiana’s resume leaves little margin for an at-large case because a handful of road victories at Valparaiso, Western Illinois and Eastern Illinois and an earlier road win at Tennessee Tech are overwhelmed by damaging defeats, most notably a heavy loss at Butler and neutral-site setbacks to Incarnate Word and Illinois Chicago, along with repeated home and road stumbles against Ohio Valley peers such as Lindenwood, SIUE, Morehead State and Arkansas Little Rock. The team faced a challenging slate but failed to pick up signature wins against higher-tier opponents and its performance away from home has been inconsistent, so the only realistic route onto the NCAA field is to secure the conference’s automatic berth.
