Projection: need to automatically qualify

Tennessee State’s profile is a classic résumé of striking highs and bruising lows: road victories at UNLV, UNC Asheville and Chattanooga give the staff something meaningful to point to, but those wins are tempered by some damaging nonconference setbacks, most notably the blowout at Tennessee and the puzzling loss at Alabama A&M that undercut an otherwise opportunistic road slate. The remaining Ohio Valley stretch features a lot of winnable league dates at home and on the road alongside a few tricky trips to places like SIUE and Southeast Missouri State, so those outcomes will determine whether the team can turn scattered signature wins into the consistent road and neutral-site performance a committee rewards.
