Projection: need to automatically qualify

North Alabama’s résumé has clear highs and troubling lows: road victories at Jacksonville State and at San Francisco show it can win away from home, but blowout losses at Mississippi State and at Clemson and a home defeat to ETSU expose defensive shortcomings and leave the profile fragile. The Atlantic Sun slate presents a mix of manageable games and meaningful road tests, so upcoming trips to Lipscomb and to West Georgia along with home dates against Bellarmine and Stetson are real opportunities to convert promising moments into a consistent body of work. The committee values road and neutral success and will weigh those signature away wins against the severe nonconference defeats, so how North Alabama handles the remaining road tests will determine whether the positives end up carrying the team.
