Projection: need to automatically qualify

Charleston So’s body of work makes clear why the only certain path to the national field runs through the conference’s automatic berth: the Buccaneers have a handful of bright spots, notably road wins at Richmond and at East Carolina and a dominant victory over S Carolina St, but those highlights are offset by damaging setbacks such as the heavy neutral loss at Virginia Tech and surprising defeats at Lindenwood and at Alabama A&M plus a string of tough trips that ended in losses at Furman, at South Carolina and at Longwood that leave the résumé light on marquee wins away from home. With few resume builders to date, road success has been scarce and a selection panel would have little to reward absent more significant victories, yet the remainder of the conference slate still offers clear opportunities to change the picture with meetings against Gardner Webb at home and road assignments at Longwood, at Radford, at Winthrop and at UNC Asheville.
