Projection: likely out

Winthrop's resume reads like an offensive juggernaut that is missing a defining road or neutral victory. Its best moments are the high-scoring home wins over Mercer and S Carolina St and the gritty triumphs away at Jackson St and LIU Brooklyn that show it can close games. Its worst results are the competitive defeats at Power Five venues like Arkansas and Nebraska and the pair of setbacks to Coastal Car that expose inconsistency. The remaining slate includes a high-profile trip to Texas Tech and a string of conference road tests at Longwood and High Point while home dates with Gardner Webb and Charleston So offer chances to build momentum. Taken together, those realities explain why the committee would view a resume that shines offensively but lacks quality wins as vulnerable until a signature away result appears.
