For saddlebags of any size, I use the Nitto R-14 rack underneath. I have one Carradice Nelson longflap, two Carradice Camper longflap, and one of the huge Baggins bags that Rivendell used to sell, and they all fit well with that rack. Quite apart from stopping the bag sagging onto the tyre or mudguard, it prevents the bag rotating forwards and hitting the back of my legs, but and also prevents the bag from swaying, particularly when it's only partly full. Preventing bag sway noticeably improves the feel of the bike, particularly when you get out of the saddle.
