Sun Belt Media Poll: Week Two
We had quite the week in the Sun Belt and learned a lot about several teams. The votes are in and a new number one sits atop the ranking. On the flip side, there’s been a shift among the bottom of the totem poll, as well.
Here are the week two rankings and the voters who participated are at the bottom.
| Team (1st Place votes) | Points |
| 1. Appalachian State (7) | 88 |
| 2. Arkansas State (2) | 79 |
| 3. Troy | 75 |
| 4. Georgia Southern | 57 |
| 5. Louisiana-Monroe | 52 |
| 6. Louisiana-Lafayette | 43 |
| 7 Coastal Carolina | 34 |
| 8. Georgia State | 31 |
| 9. South Alabama | 24 |
| 10. Texas State | 12 |
Going Up
Appalachian State added three more first place votes to overtake the Red Wolves after a dominant showing against Charlotte.
Coastal Carolina used a big fourth quarter to blow past UAB and the voters noticed. The Chanticleers moved from ninth up to seventh with an 18 point boost.
Going Down
Louisiana-Lafayette dropped two spots following its bye, the biggest drop of the week, but South Alabama lost 15 points after its drubbing at the hands of Oklahoma State, the most of any team.
