| Rank | Team | Comments | Prior | |
| 1 |  | Sam Houston State | SHSU (5-0) took care of business, beating McNeese. Already clinched Southland, but beating UIW will clinched a seed. | 1 |
| 2 |  | Weber State | WSU (5-0) finsihed off Idaho State for a second time this spring and the Big Sky's automatic. Are they a playoff seed team? Probably. | 2 |
| 3 |  | James Madison | JMU (4-0) has one win in five weeks. But they finally get Richmond, at home, to finish the regular season. Win equals seed, simple. | 3 |
| 4 |  | North Dakota State | NDSU (6-1) won a tough road game at Northern Iowa. Now they get SDSU at home for the Dakota Marker, autobid and a seed. | 4 |
| 5 |  | Delaware | UD (4-0) easily beat Delaware State. Regular season ends at Villanova with a likely playoff bid on the line. | 5 |
| 6 |  | North Dakota | UND (4-1) hasn't played since losing March 20. Supposed to play at Youngstown State this week. | 6 |
| 7 |  | South Dakota State | SDSU (4-1) will have waited a month before playing NDSU next week. Probably jump to a seed with a win and the MVFC's auto. | 7 |
| 8 |  | Eastern Washington | EWU (5-1) finished the regular season, winning against the team who beat them, Idaho. They wait for a certain at-large bid now. | 9 |
| 9 |  | Jacksonville State | JSU (9-2) took down Murray State to claim the Ohio Valley automatic bid. Now the waiting game. | 10 |
| 10 |  | Monmouth | MU (3-0) jumped all over Kennesaw State and took the Big South auto in the process. They finish at Robert Morris next week. | 17 |
| 11 |  | Richmond | UR (3-0) gets their final shot at JMU and the CAA "South" title. A win clinches a playoff berth, a loss may end their dreams. | 11 |
| 12 |  | Villanova | 'Nova (2-1) has played one game in the last four weeks. Play at Delaware for CAA "North" and a likely playoff bid. | 12 |
| 13 |  | Virginia Military | VMI (5-1) had the week off. The SoCon bid is there for the taking, if they can beat The Citadel. A loss opens the door for Mercer. | 14 |
| 14 |  | Southeastern Louisiana | SLU (4-2) was drawn into a shootout with Nicholls and prevailed. A win in their surprise added game at SIU should clinch an at-large. | 19 |
| 15 |  | Kennesaw State | KSU (4-1) had no answers for the questions Monmouth was asking. Have they done enough with their weak schedule? | 8 |
| 16 |  | East Tennessee State | ETSU (4-2) lost to Mercer and may have sealed their playoff hopes. Season is done, needs some chaos to get back in the conversation. | 13 |
| 17 |  | Murray State | MSU (5-2) lost their second straight to close their schedule. No certainty now. Did they do enough before their slide? | 15 |
| 18 |  | UC Davis | UC-D (3-2) is done for the year with a playoff bid unlikely. | 16 |
| 19 |  | Missouri State | MSU (5-4) finished their season with a win over Youngstown State. 4-1 in MVFC, but can they get in without the autobid? | 21 |
| 20 |  | Southern Illinois | SIU (4-3) had two weeks of games cancelled. But they get a non-con home date with Southeastern Louisiana now. | 22 |
| 21 |  | Incarnate Word | UIW (3-2) lost to Northwestern State, causing major damage to their resume. Could a win over SHSU get them back in the field? | 18 |
| 22 |  | Nicholls | NSU (4-3) lost another higher scoring game, this time to McNeese. A home win against SLU will put them squarely on the playoff fence. | 20 |
| 23 |  | Maine | UM (2-2) has come to an end of the road. No more spring season and no playoffs in sight. Waiting for fall. | 24 |
| 24 |  | Sacred Heart | SH (3-1) won their revenge game at Duquesne to clinch the Northeast automatic. They just sit and wait now. | NR |
| 25 |  | Holy Cross | HC (2-0) hasn't played in weeks. Crusaders travel to Bucknell for Patriot League Championship and a playoff bid. | NR |
