From kenpom.com Ken Pomeroy picks Elon to win the SoCon. I'm not convinced, but here's what he says:
15. SoCon
The pick: Elon. The Phoenix’s 7-7 record has been the result of a brutal non-conference slate. That schedule isn’t over, though. Somehow, they host UMass on January 18th. Upset alert!
The contrarian pick: Wofford. The Terriers are 5-7, but they’ve played well against quality opponents, and they only have to play Elon once so the schedule gives them an edge over Davidson. They also have an all-name teamer in point guard Indiana Faithfull.
Elon 4790
Davidson 2306
Wofford 1212
Western Carolina 1130
Georgia Southern 361
Samford 58
Furman 44
Chattanooga 37
UNC Greensboro 33
Appalachian St. 29
