Projection: need to automatically qualify

TX Southern's current status indicates a significant uphill battle to secure a spot in the NCAA Tournament. Their two losses early in the season, particularly the wide-margin defeat against Georgia, illustrate defensive frailties that could hinder their chances against stronger opponents. The upcoming games against Texas State and Sam Houston State should serve as critical tests; winning these would not only help build their confidence but also improve their overall standing. Conversely, an inability to win against these mid-tier teams might cement their status as a team reliant on automatic qualification through the Southwestern Athletic Conference. They need to make an impactful statement in conference play, particularly against teams like Grambling and Southern University, to bolster their resume and avoid a grim fate in March.
