Southern ConferenceThe South dominated the Southern Conference divisions last year in basketball.
Davidson won the South and finished at 16-2 in league play. Wofford and Georgia Southern tied at 12-6. Charleston finished fourth at 10-8.
UNC Greensboro topped the North at 10-8 and Elon was second at 9-9. The rest of the North finished sub-.500.
Yet the SoCon tournament byes went to UNCG, Elon, Davidson and Wofford on a tiebreaker with GSU.
The current system would have swapped GSU for Elon, because this season the division winners earn byes and the rest of the league is seeded by record.
