Projection: need to automatically qualify

Wofford is positioned to need the Southern Conference title because its résumé combines a handful of respectable road wins with several bruising losses that neutralize those positives. Road victories at Bellarmine, Gardner‑Webb and at Furman and solid home results against league opponents show the team can win away from home and finish games, but none of those wins qualify as a marquee neutral or power‑conference scalp that would swing an at‑large conversation. The low points came on the road at Auburn and at George Mason and in a shootout defeat at Mercer, results that exposed defensive inconsistency and left the profile short on quality, résumé‑building victories. With approachable home dates against VMI and Citadel ahead and dangerous trips to ETSU and UNC Greensboro still to play, the clearest and most reliable path to the NCAA field is cutting down the nets in the conference tournament because the body of work as it stands does not feature the kind of signature wins that catch a committee’s eye.
