Projection: need to automatically qualify

UTSA’s profile is built around a couple of meaningful victories and a string of damaging setbacks, with a true road win at Denver and a neutral-site triumph over Georgia Southern standing out as its best work while blowout losses at Alabama, Colorado and USC and puzzling home defeats to SIUE, South Alabama and Seattle have done the most damage; their nonconference travel showed they can be overwhelmed in major arenas but also that they can win away when the matchup is right. The rest of the American schedule hands them clear chances to rebuild with home dates against Charlotte, Tulane and Rice and a handful of high-value road tests at Temple, Memphis and North Texas where signature wins would shift perception. Given the absence of a marquee victory, the presence of several beatable opponents left on the slate, and the cost of those bad losses, the committee’s evaluation follows the logical contours of this resume.
