Who are the favorites?
The Southland Conference has put forth some solid games this season, and it looks like through the turmoil three teams have risen to be considered favorites for the tournament. The New Orleans Panthers, Nicholls Colonels and SE Louisiana Lions. They were the only three teams in the conference with a winning record in conference play.
The Texas A&M-CC Islanders could be a competitive sleeper looking to play upset. They struggled in conference play, but their out-of-conference wins show that they have the talent to make some noise.
