Projection: likely out

ETSU’s profile is built on a string of comfortable home victories and a handy road win at North Alabama, which are the team’s best moments, but that progress is offset by an ugly upset at Presbyterian and a heavy defeat at Dayton that leave a stubborn blemish on the resume; most of the quality on the ledger comes against low-end foes such as ULM, Central Arkansas and Morehead State, so there is no signature victory to erase the damage. The remainder of the schedule is mostly conference play and offers plenty of chances to change the conversation with home dates against opponents like Jacksonville State, Mercer, VMI and UNC Greensboro, yet the real opportunities to move the needle are on the road and on neutral floors in trips to North Carolina, Furman, Chattanooga and other tough league sites, where road victories would validate the season and erase the sting of that early loss.
