Projection: need to automatically qualify

Louisiana’s résumé hinges on a gritty home win over SE Louisiana and a tight showing against Tulane that suggested the team can compete with better opponents but those bright spots are dwarfed by ugly road losses at Stanford, Santa Clara, UC Davis and McNeese State and damaging defeats at Ball State, Jackson State and Lamar. The recurring theme is an inability to win away from home, and those road failures blunt the impact of its modest victories. The stretch ahead presents home chances to rebuild credibility against ULM, Georgia State and Coastal Carolina while a run of true road tests at Louisiana Tech, Southern Miss, James Madison and Old Dominion offers the only realistic route to meaningful, resume-enhancing wins away from home.
