Projection: need to automatically qualify
Alabama State’s résumé shows a couple of encouraging flashes but not the kind of signature results that earn an at-large look; the road victory at UAB and the eye-catching neutral-site offensive outburst against IUPUI are the team’s best moments, yet those bright spots are eclipsed by ugly trips to Florida State and Colorado and by narrow setbacks at New Mexico and Air Force that expose inconsistency against stronger competition. With the nonconference slate producing few quality wins, the stretch of upcoming road games at Missouri, Cincinnati, Memphis and Mississippi State and the bulk of conference home-and-away play become the only realistic opportunities to change the narrative, so without a road breakthrough against a notable opponent the practical path to the tournament runs through winning the conference crown.
