Projection: need to automatically qualify

VMI's resume presents significant challenges for an at-large bid, as their overall performance has been inconsistent in a league that isn't highly regarded nationally. Noteworthy victories like the one against Furman demonstrate their potential to compete; however, the losses to teams like Tennessee Tech and UNC Greensboro expose serious weaknesses on both ends of the floor. The upcoming games against Chattanooga and Samford, both of whom are solid competitors within the Southern Conference, represent critical opportunities to both solidify their standing and improve their overall performance metrics. To enhance their NCAA tournament chances, VMI must not only aim for victories but also seek to dominate those games to boost their overall perception.
