I dunno.
Cincy has a bad loss to us.
We have a bad loss to Houston.
So, right now its between ECU,UCF, and Houston I think.
I think Memphis will only win 3 of its last 4 remaining games.
I'd like to win more....just a strong hunch that I have. We're not ready to compete for the league title just yet.

It still could be for the AAC championship and best bowl spot. I am still pissed it is on a damn Thursday. It makes me have to take off early for the 3 hour drive and no pregame festivities.
If Houston wins, it's a 5-way tie for first place in the AAC and 5 co-champions at 3-1. My ranking of remaining games from easiest to hardest is:
- Memphis has Temple, Tulane, USF and UConn
- UCF has Tulsa, SMU, USF and ECU
- Houston has USF (assuming Houston wins), Tulane, Tulsa, SMU and UC
- UC has ECU, Temple, UConn and Houston
- ECU has UC, Tulane, Tulsa and UCF
Next year, with divisions and a championship game, things will be a lot clearer.

Before the season started all of us would have been amazed that we would even be close to being in the discussion Nov 1; yet here we are. We had won a total of 12 games in the previous 5 years.
Six or seven wins was all we could reasonably expect from a "good" year before the season began.
If we were to win 3 of our last 4 games, I'd be happy enough to do backflips ........ if I could get all this weight up in the air at one time.
