This is an lol for me. So posters from Texas P5 teams think UH is a ghetto fanbase, and I learn now that evidently posters from other states think it's redneck.
That's geographical relativity for you.

1: BYU - Obviously no impact on the AAC. Hopefully another whacky religious school would further destabilize the B12 and expedite the conf demise.
2: MemphEx - If they left the AAC it might have a minor effect on the basketball perception of the AAC. The B12 would pick up another small school located in the armpit of America. Terrible academics. 3 winning football seasons in 10 years. Lost their head coach and only good Qb they ever had other than Wimprine.
3: Houston - Prolly should already be in B12 based on their redneck geography. UT needs another stepbrother to push around. Good football team. Was able to beat the 3rd place team from the ACC in their bowl game last season. Quality coach and facilities. If they leave the AAC it will definitely have an impact, but nobody really likes UH anyway.
4: Cincy - This would hurt the AAC the most. 9 winning seasons over the past 10 years which is better than any team in the league. 5 consecutive bowl games, also best in the AAC. No other AAC team packs their stadium as a % of capacity than Cincy. Was the flagship football program of the BigEast. Excellent basketball program as well. Most of their fans are tolerable.
Disagree. With no disrespect to Cincy, West Virginia was the flagship football program of the Big East.
Yep, I would probably put UC and UL on equal pegging in second behind WVU. Those Pat White/Steve Slaton years they were the talk of every sports page in America.
UL????
Did you forget Kragthorpe?
Louisville had a brutal 4 years with him. Took one year of mediocre Strong to turn it around. Louisville was 50% good in the BE.
Really, I would put Cincy at #2.
The middle of the conference, Louisville, USF, Pitt, Rutgers and UConn were closer to 50% and constantly up and down.
Syracuse and Temple were the stragglers for those 10 years.
1. Please don't ever mention HWSNBN ever again.
2. HWSNBN was here 3 years, not 4. And in that one year of "Mediocre" Strong, where he had to rebuild from absolutely nothing, we still went to, and won, a bowl game.
3. Cincy always had a strong team, but could never get it done in the big games. Louisville won two BCS bowls as a member of the Big East/AAC (Orange in 2007 and Sugar in 2013).
So I would say overall the league went like this:
WVU
Louisville
Cincy
everyone else
I think this is fair....

I never liked the Big games argument against UC.
Sure, we straight up lost the orange bowl. Can't really argue that, but it wasn't a blowout. I recall it being a decent game.
The Sugar Bowl is horsesh!t. We lost our offensive genius of a coach just a week or two before the game where we had to face off against a roster littered with NFL talent, arguably the greatest college player to ever play in his last game ever, and Urban Meyer coached them. It was hopeless. There was no winning that game with those ingredients. To get to this game we had to mount a comeback against a 15th ranked opponent in the de facto championship game. It's not like we were constantly Clemsoning ourselves.
Obviously I'm making excuses for our second BCS bowl but it just rubs me the wrong way.
WVU was definitely the flagship of that version of the BE however. No question.

You beat the second weakest seed. Tcu has been around for more than a cup of coffee. Not a hatet just tired of revisionist history.
lmao, this post is pure bitterness
1) houston did have first place votes 2 seasons ago, houston received 1/5 of the first place projections even in the official AAC preseason poll... John okorn had just won freshmen of the year and espn dubbed him a Heisman candidate and 5 star greenberry at that preseason was projected a top 25 1st rd draft pick...
okorn ended up flopping but ward comes in
2) as for the rest of your post you can thoroughly believe that if you want and take it to the grave..i personally dont care...we are talking national perception and the opinion of the masses
0% of people who matter care that you had 1 more win than houston in 2014, what will affect perception is cincy getting blown out on national television in their bowl ..they will care that Houston had a historic bowl game comeback versus pit (something that was referenced in the oregon tcu bowl comeback this year)
you can sleep at night with a pillow that calls fsu the 3rd place ACC for all i care...the national perception is we beat a top 10 ranked blue blood team in college football
lol this was the biggest hater post ive read from you in a while.. while denting it and saying revisionist history when YOU changed history in your post
Pesik, give it a rest, you had one good year. Congrats, you did not win the national championship and outside of the AAC no one cares. You are such a blind homer it is scary.

So to this date in the official media poll no poll has shown houston to finish ahead of cincy. Hardly puts us on equal standing prior to last year. Enjoy the fleeting moment.

and heres a link to the main sports show on byu tv...they compare every candidate to byu...this is an impartial opinion (not tied to houston or cincy)
they basically say cincy and memphis are a flash in the pan...think uconn is horrible (in football) and that houston is the only candidate that is even debate-able

naming a player means zero
Scottie Pippen can be named by a lot of people...doesn't mean his team in college was any better than somebody else

lol i decided to google cincys football history
do you know that our "one great season" would be the greatest Cincy season ever..and would be the highest coaches poll finish Cincy would have ever gotten?
despite playing since 1885 cincy has only cracked the top25 7 times...not finished, i mean anytime at all in the season..7 seasons total
why does 4 good seasons in a 130 year history give Cincy fans room to trash talk Houston especially on a rhetoric of (1 good season)... you HAD 4 GOOD YEARS TOTAL EVER
that 2011 season you are mocking would be the 3rd best season cincy has ever had
ps i like cincy im only trash talking becuase rosewater started it, rt brought himself into the convo trash talking and you joined trying to troll
