Projection: need to automatically qualify

Tennessee Tech's résumé is defined more by brutal road defeats at Kentucky and Georgia than by marquee victories, and those lopsided losses overshadow wins against lower-tier opponents such as West Georgia, Arkansas Little Rock, and a road victory at SC Upstate. Conference play has produced a mix of encouraging home results and a couple of gritty road performances but also damaging setbacks to Tennessee State and Eastern Illinois that leave the profile thin when committees look for quality wins away from home. With few signature neutral-site or true road scalps, the clearest path to the national field is to win the Ohio Valley Conference tournament, and the remaining league games at home against SIUE and Lindenwood and road dates at Tennessee Martin and Southeast Missouri State are the last realistic chances to build momentum heading into that must-win stretch.
