Projection: need to automatically qualify
Texas Southern is facing a challenging path to the NCAA tournament, primarily due to the strength of their non-conference schedule and overall performance. Losses against teams like Xavier and New Mexico highlight their struggles to compete at higher levels, while defensive lapses have contributed to their unfavorable rankings. The remaining schedule includes several winnable conference games, such as against Mississippi Valley State and Arkansas Pine Bluff, but they will need to capitalize on these to boost their standing significantly. If they can secure a strong finish in the Southwestern Athletic Conference tournament, their chances for an automatic bid will improve dramatically.
