Projection: need to automatically qualify

VMI's resume raises significant concerns with their conference performance and overall record. They've shown some flashes of potential, particularly in their recent win against Chattanooga, highlighted by strong offensive play but have encountered troubling losses, like the one against Pittsburgh. Their inability to secure consistent victories against higher-ranked opponents and an unimpressive defense undermines their standing. Facing challenges in their conference against teams like Furman and Wofford, where they struggled significantly, further emphasizes their need for a solid finish to improve their chances for an automatic bid. If they can capitalize on upcoming games against lower-ranked conferences and add a few key victories, they may improve their standing, but there’s a long road ahead.
