I think MT wins the SBC this year. FIU lost Rosa, MT picked up an All-SBC first-teamer from UNO. WKU will be fighting with MT and FIU to gain a position.

The West Division is going to take a huge dive with the loss of UNO, who would have won the SBC this year, if they stayed. NT has a new coach. ULL and ASU ran off most of their teams. UALR is not the same.

WKU has been consistently good for the past several years and it wouldn't surprise me that they are in the hunt.

What do you think of the schedule TT?

Good mix of teams. Got to win the toughies to get to the NCAAs as an-large, but not sure there are not toughies like the MT slate...

I'm more interested of seeing who comes out of the SBC West this year. Your matches at A-State and Denver will be tough. Got the easy side of the West coming to your place.

Since New Orleans left the Sun Belt it seems to be an uneven schedule for the Toppers, especially going to 4 West Teams (the Arkansas teams, Denver, and North Texas), but that's the card that WKU was dealt. A critical two week stretch of away games, will be the deciding factor for the Lady Toppers and their continuance of upper echelon volleyball in the East Division.

The schedules have been an uneven in the SBC. The West teams used to play 18 games (10 home, 8 away or vice-versa) while the SBC East teams would play 16 games total...

Not going to be hard to stay out of the upper echelon with FIU and MT. The teams behind you won't be catching up...
