Projection: need to automatically qualify

Arkansas State has had a bit of a rollercoaster season with significant ups and downs, which reflects in their inconsistent resume. In marquee match-ups, they were unable to capitalize against high-caliber teams like Wisconsin and Alabama, suffering heavy defeats that dent their non-conference standing. While they've had a few bright spots, such as a sturdy win over UAB and a pair of victories against Appalachian State, the number of losses against lower-ranked conference foes raises questions about their reliability under pressure. Defensively, they have shown vulnerability, which could be exploited by teams with potent offensive weapons. Although they've shown they can run up the score against certain opponents, their performance has lacked steadiness, making it paramount for them to snatch an automatic bid by clinching their conference tournament if they wish to dance in March.
