Projection: need to automatically qualify

Austin Peay's season has shown potential but is hampered by inconsistency and a lack of strong victories against highly regarded opponents. A notable win against Butler highlighted their ability to compete, but losses—such as the significant setback to Tennessee—raise concerns about their competitiveness at a higher level. Their defense has shown flashes of quality, ranking well in key metrics, yet their overall performance against teams like Vanderbilt and Morehead State depicts vulnerabilities that will need addressing. The remaining schedule offers a mix of winnable and challenging games; winning the Atlantic Sun Conference is their clearest path to the NCAA tournament given their current standing.
