This week’s feature conference is the Sun Belt, where we’ve seen Arkansas State have a big year so far with some big OOC wins, but South Alabama has also come on strong and is sitting at the top of the standings. The other unique thing about this league is how much parity exists within it. As of now, just one game separates 4th place from 12th place, and given the crazy conference tournament format that should make for a compelling rest of the season.
After that we run through the other 21 OOC conferences and discuss what a surprise Maine has been this year and their big game coming up against UMass Lowell tomorrow, the overall strength of the Big South and how UNC Asheville is in 1st place, UC Irvine looks like they have a path to landing inside the bubble if they can continue to dominate the Big West, Drake and Bradley are having really big years in the Missouri Valley, and McNeese is starting to come on strong out of the Southland. We discuss all that, and more! And, as we do every week, we close with this week’s UTR Top Ten.
And for all you radio lovers, below is an audio only version of the show…
