Projection: need to automatically qualify

The projection makes sense because Wofford’s résumé is built on gritty league road wins like those at Furman and Bellarmine and a steady string of conference victories, but it is undermined by lopsided losses at George Mason, at Auburn and at Wichita State and damaging home setbacks to Mercer and Elon that leave little in the way of a signature non‑conference scalp for an at‑large case. The offense can pile up points against lesser opponents yet the team’s recent collapses on the road against major opponents expose defensive instability a selection committee will penalize. With no marquee wins against high‑major programs, the clearest path to the NCAA tournament runs through winning the Southern Conference’s title and the remaining league slate presents real opportunities to shore up the résumé or to make clear that the automatic bid is the only realistic route.
