Projection: need to automatically qualify

Austin Peay's season has been a rocky journey, highlighted by their win against Butler, which demonstrates that they can compete at a higher level when necessary. However, their overall record, particularly losses to low-ranked teams like Morehead State and Bellarmine, raises significant concerns about consistency and strength of schedule. With several upcoming games that appear winnable, notably against Cent Arkansas and Stetson, they must capitalize on these opportunities to bolster their standings. However, losses to competitive teams like Tennessee and Lipscomb suggest they struggle against stronger opponents, which could hinder their quest for an automatic qualification. To strengthen their resume, Austin Peay will need to string together victories and avoid catastrophic losses as they navigate the remainder of their conference schedule.
