Projection: need to automatically qualify

Winthrop has shown enough bite to make a committee take notice with narrow showings at Arkansas and Nebraska and an offensive statement against Mercer plus a dominant road scoring night at Gardner Webb, but the résumé is undermined by a lopsided loss at Texas Tech and a shortage of signature nonconference victories; the team’s workmanlike run through the Big South, including neutral-site wins over Charleston Southern and Presbyterian, strengthens the case, yet late narrow road slips at High Point and Charleston Southern and a neutral-site setback leave the profile short of a clear at-large résumé, so winning the conference remains the most realistic way onto the big tournament field.
