Per the SBC conference website - games will be announced in January and matchups will be based on current NET ratings, unless they already played earlier in the season.

Marshall and Coastal Carolina are the 2 Sun Belt teams not participating.

https://sunbeltsports.org/news/2023/6/22/mens-basketball-...

Based on that current matchups would be:

Akron (NET - 89) @ James Madison (NET - 61)
Toledo (137) @ Appalachian St (73)
BG (189) @ Louisiana (139)
Kent (192) @ Troy (144)
Ohio (218) @ Georgia St (185)
Miami (225) @ Arkansas St (191)
N Illinois (260) @ South Alabama (236)
W Michigan (262) @ Texas St (241)
Ball St (283) @ Southern Miss (242)
C Michigan (287) @ Old Dominion (276)
E Michigan (319) @ UL-Monroe (340) (they already played Ga Southern)
Buffalo (344) @ Ga Southern (327)

The only changes for final announcement were that Ohio and Miami swapped spots on MAC side, with Miami now playing Georgia St and us getting Arkansas St - and Southern Miss and Texas St swapping spots on SBC side, with WMU visiting SMiss and Ball St at Texas St. Rest of the predictions held.

Poking around conference standings. Appalachian State swept JMU. Going to be a tough matchup for Toledo. Its Best player? last year's leading shot blocker and 3rd best rebounder at the JUCO level.

According the ESPN, all 13 games this coming weekend pitting a MAC team at a SunBelt team will be on ESPN+ (with Akron at JMU being showcased on ESPN2) except one. Can you guess which one?

Really hate this game. It's being played in the middle of nowhere and now not on ESPN+.

And yet the Sun Belt will be favored over the MAC in essentially every single game. Fun times.
