Schedule scraping incorrect team names sometimes, some team names inconsistent in schedule, multiple team names inconsistent from roster to schedule to box score #44

The team schedule scraper will grab the incorrect text for the opponent sometimes during certain tournaments. http://stats.ncaa.org/teams/541996

The above link is Appalachian St.'s schedule for '22-'23, the games against Campbell, Kennesaw St., and Southeastern La. all end up showing the opponent as "MBB App State MTE"

There's multiple tournaments like this that appear as opponents.

There's also times when they appear as App State, possibly randomly?

The box scores have App State exclusively while the rosters have both Appalachian St. and App State based on the season, this happens for other schools as well

This issue is still happening. After a recent install of the package and scrape of schedules there's still team names called NIT, Men's Basketball NIT, MBB UIW MTE, etc
