Projection: need to automatically qualify

UNC Wilmington's resume is challenging, mainly due to their mixed performances throughout the season. Their victories against teams like Georgia Southern and Sam Houston State showcase offensive potential, but losses to Kansas and Colgate highlight vulnerabilities, especially against higher-ranked opponents. The defense fluctuates between solid and inconsistent, placing them at risk in tight contests. With several upcoming games against middling teams like FGCU and Campbell, winning those is crucial for building resume strength and enhancing their chances for an at-large bid. However, inconsistency, particularly against teams like Col Charleston and William & Mary, could hinder their chances if they falter in these matchups. Ultimately, the path to the NCAA tournament will likely hinge on their capacity to secure the conference title.
