Projection: need to automatically qualify

Southern Utah's placement as a team that must secure its conference's automatic bid is clear from the body of work: heavy road and neutral defeats at Gonzaga, Washington, Arizona State, Washington State and Oregon State swamp a season whose best moments are a neutral win over Stetson, a road victory at Abilene Christian and a handful of home wins over Utah Tech and Utah Valley. With no eye-catching win over a power-conference opponent and too many poor results away from home, the resume offers little for an at-large case and leaves the only practical path to the NCAA tournament as a strong run through the conference tournament.
