The men’s basketball Sun Belt Conference standings are night and day compared to last year. It seems of the top four teams in last year’s standings, only Georgia State remains in the top four of this year’s standings. Even though Georgia State is in fourth place compared to being first last year, they are only two games out of being back in that top spot.
