I misread the first post calling for Ark LR to lose. Ark State is currently in the best position for a Sunbelt at-large bid.

There is no best Positoon for an at large bid because it's a one bid league no matter what.

There won't be an at large bid from the Sun-Belt, not sure how this is still a thing?

For a mid major?? There's been some in the low 30's get left out.

UT all the way, with Cal being on the bubble the last couple weeks I've been waiting for the Zo choke job, hasn't happened though.

ETSU (18-5) is at 89 and Chattanooga at 93. It would definitely help UT's bubble chances if the currently 1st place Buccaneers won the Southern regular season and the league's NCAA bid in the tournament.

Really wouldn't make a difference either way, ideally both win every game the rest of the way and meet in the championship, whoever wins that game doesn't matter.
