Projection: need to automatically qualify
TX Southern faces a challenging road ahead for NCAA Tournament consideration. Their early-season losses to significantly stronger opponents like Xavier and New Mexico exposed weaknesses in both offense and defense, which has continued to plague them in close matchups, such as their recent losses to Florida A&M and Alabama State. Despite showing some resilience against teams like Grambling and MS Valley State, dominating these lower-ranked opponents won't be enough. To bolster their chances, they must not only dominate their remaining Southwestern Athletic Conference games but also aim for a strong performance in the conference tournament. Opportunities to impress selection committees could come if they can secure a convincing win over a top team or find a way to push through in any upcoming rematches against teams they previously struggled against, showing significant improvement and competitiveness.
