#RisingSun: Sun Belt Power Rankings (Wk 8)
It’s Tuesday…and that means your SBC Power Rankings! Not many changes occurred…but enough occurred to keep things interesting!
| Team | Rank | Previous Rank | Record | The Story So Far |
| 1 | 1 | 15-1, 22-7 | The Panthers are undeniably the best team in the SBC…as they clinch the outright SBC title along with the number one seed in New Orleans. | |
| 2 | 2 | 10-6, 19-10 | The Cajuns dominated South Al and continue to build momentum as the top opponent to take down the Panthers. | |
| 3 | 3 | 9-6, 17-10 | The Red Wolves suffered a loss to in-state rival UALR…but have won 6 of their last 8. The trey balls continue to rain with this club and are a lethal method of attack against any opponent. | |
| 4 | 5 | 8-8, 13-15 | The Mavs came back against the Hilltoppers showed their stride…which can be impressive. By stride I mean offensive weapons…if this offense gets going…it will be hard to stop. | |
| 5 | 4 | 11-5, 19-10 | The Hilltoppers continue to hide what team they truly are…remaining inconsistent and unable to close out games. | |
| 6 | 8 | 9-8, 14-15 | The Trojans steal a win from in-state rival A-State…but still continue their average play…they could still be a threatening team in New Orleans however. | |
| 7 | 7 | 5-11, 10-18 | The Trojans have won only 2 of their past 6 outings…they will have to pick up their play this last week as they hold the final seed for the SBC tourney. | |
| 8 | 6 | 6-10, 9-15 | The Warhawks have won just 1 game in their last four outings…and are only led by Tyler Ongwae. But when they are competing as a team they can be tough. | |
| 9 | 9 | 4-12, 8-21 | After playing three top teams in the SBC, the Bobcats find themselves on a three game losing streak and one game behind from being in the SBC tourney. | |
| 10 | 10 | 3-13, 9-20 | After only winning 3 games in conference play…the Jags will try to end their last two regular season games on a high note. |
This final week should be a doozy as we have four top 4 match ups which will definitely impact the rankings. We hope you enjoyed this weeks issue…and hope you enjoy the games the Sun Belt has to offer the rest of this week! Until next time…have a good one SBC!
