Projection: need to automatically qualify

Tennessee Tech faces a daunting path ahead, highlighted by a collection of lackluster performances and low rankings that reflect significant struggles both offensively and defensively. The close win against West Georgia and narrow victories over weaker opponents like VMI may be overshadowed by heavy losses to teams like Georgia and Vanderbilt, which indicate a considerable gap in talent. To increase their chances for an automatic tournament bid, a series of crucial victories against conference rivals, particularly those like Southern Indiana and Morehead State, will be essential. The upcoming matchups are critical; a failure to secure wins against these teams will likely leave them on the outside looking in as they reach the end of the season. Consistency in both scoring and defensive resilience will be paramount to improving their overall standing.
