SoCon:
7-2 WC and GSU have South Carolina and Georgia left on their schedule so it doesn't look like anyone from the SoCon will finish with less than 3 losses.
In the MVFC, it's one loss NDSU with tough games remaining against 9-2 SDSU and @ 9-2 Illinois State. If the Bison win out the MVFC is a one-seed conference. If SDSU or ISU pick off the Bison it could be a two seed conference.
In the CAA you have 7-2 JMU at 6-3 Villanova and 8-1 ODU at home. ODU plays Bill and Mary next week before traveling to JMU. UNH seems to have the easiest path to a seed hosting Towson and Bill and Mary. Possible two-seed conference.
Southland: 8-2 Central Arkansas appears to be the only one with a chance (SHSU has two losses and finishes with Texas A&M). The Bears host an interesting final game with a solid Eastern Illinois who will be playing for their playoff lives. The Southland gained some cred with the committee last year with SHSU's run, so a 9-2 UCA might be in line for a seed.
BSC:
8-1 MSU hosts 3-6 Portland State and finishes at Montana. 7-2 Cal Poly plays ISU and finishes in Flagstaff against 8-1 NAU who hosts 4-6 SUU the week before. 7-2 EWU hosts Davis and finishes at PSU. It would be tough to ignore a 10-1 MSU in any scenario, but if NAU and EWU win out it will be very interesting to see what happens. Possible two - bid conference.
Anyone else in the hunt?
