Lot of key games remain, but the path is getting a little clearer. Historically, (7) losses or less is safe. From (8) losses and up, it's a crapshoot.
The PSAC is going to continue to beat each other up. The Top 4 in the MEC have some remaining head-to-heads. The CIAA, as always, is very hard to predict -- and, famous for an out-of-nowhere team winning the automatic bid. While it can happen in any league, it's much more rare, historically, in the MEC and PSAC.
The (MEN'S) contenders from each conference (with 6 losses as the current cut-off):
MEC
PSAC
CIAA
