Contenders: Troy, Georgia State, Appalachian State, Arkansas State
Troy: The Trojans are probably in the best shape right now in the Sun Belt, and have the biggest win in the league outside of conference play against LSU. They have a tie breaker with Georgia State, and play Arkansas State next week. They did not play Appalachian State this season.
Georgia State: The Panthers still need a little help, as they have lost to Troy. The Panthers have a huge elimination game with Appalachian State this week. Either way, what Coach Elliott and his staff have done this season is nothing short of amazing.
Appalachian State: The Mountaineers have not played anyone in the 4 way race for the title this season, and will only end up playing Georgia State when everything irons out. That game is this week. For a lock down shot at the title, they must win this game.
Arkansas State: They sure would love to get back last weekend's loss to South Alabama. That lone loss caused this mess of teams tied for first in the conference. They have not earned a single tie breaker thus far in conference play in head to head match ups, and the only member of this four way tie they will face will be Troy on 12/2. In the meantime, they cannot lose a single game from here out to stay in the race without needing help to reclaim the top spot.
