Projection: need to automatically qualify

Appalachian State's chances for the NCAA tournament are shaky at best, primarily due to a lack of quality wins and an offense that has struggled against tougher competition. Their losses to teams like Wisconsin and Arkansas State highlight significant challenges, especially when faced with the defensive powerhouses. While they have secured some victories, like their wins against High Point and James Madison, those don't carry enough weight to offset their poor performance against higher-ranked teams. To solidify their tournament hopes, they need to capitalize on upcoming games, particularly against conference rivals, and aim for a strong showing in the Sun Belt conference tournament to secure an automatic qualifier status.
