As for you folks ragging on the AAC you're welcome to try your hand against Tulsa anytime. We're not scared. With the way you all hate on us you really do make us look like the SEC of the G5. Hate us cuz ya ain't us I guess.

Sigh...

Look.

The only reason people are here "ragging on the AAC" is because many of the AAC fans here (not all, but the most vocal ones) spend all their time going on and on about this "P6" thing and treating the other conferences like trash. And even when the AAC team is getting beat, they still go on talking trash and making excuses.

The AAC is a great conference and its best teams can compete with with many of the P5 teams. I respect the AAC. But, at the end of the day, it is still a G5 conference. You can say the AAC is the best G5 conference, and I would agree. But y'all are still competing for the same NY6 slot that the rest of the G5 is and you don't get an auto bid to the NY6 like the P5 conferences do. Most P5 fans lump you into the same category as the rest of the G5 and make fun of you for the P6 thing.

I would enjoy being able to have adult conversations with you guys. But all some of you want to do is act like children. A shame, really.

I would love for ASU to play Tulsa on a yearly basis. I think it could be made into a good rivalry. It isn't like ASU has never beaten Tulsa either as they did back in the early 80's. For that matter ASU and Memphis should play every year too since they are only 60 miles apart.

We dropped you because no one cares.

Try selling that crap to someone who doesn't keep up with the ASU/Memphis rivalry. Your AD dropped ASU because y'all got tired of getting that butt kicked by a school you think inferior.

Idk about rivalry but we need to schedule more games with the Arkansas State-like teams of this region for a multitude of reseaons. It helps us with recruiting, attendance, and travel expenses to name a few.

I came here because my team is playing Navy and wanted to check out what people here thought about the match-up. Severely disappointed that people want to act like children.

Quote:Memphis is a community college compared to the rank and file ACC. Their endowment is about 12% of the ACC median and just 33% of the ACC lowest. They have no Phi Beta Kappa chapter, they are not ranked by ARWU - there is nothing in common. All they have is Fed Ex.

They also have a football stadium and basketball arena that sits within 120 miles of the center of the New Madrid seismic zone. One moment you go back for a pass, the next minute you are sliding into the Mississippi River.

No thanks.

p6!

Is that a typo when you kept saying ACC?

Wow,

Where did all these immature kids come from?

WKU played a great game, deserved to win, and deserved to be congratulated.......I even went to the CUSA board and said that many times, but the kids were too busy calling all of us names to even see it.

Then I thank you for being one of the few reasonable people around here. Memphis is a great program and I have a lot of respect for the Tigers. If I had been in charge of Big XII expansion, Memphis would've been on my short list.

The ball carrier is allowed to stiff arm an opponent. The defender is not allowed to grab the ball carrier's facemask.

Whether that's fair or not is up to you, but them's the rules.

Um...not sure when it went into effect as to if it was last year or this year but the ball carrier can not stiff arm a would be tackler in the face mask. That is a PF penalty on him. Saw it called in a game early this year. The runners stiff arm must stay at shoulder level or lower. And it is something I agree with as tacklers can be just as injured as the runner can with such a move.

Well.... they got away with that all night long.

That was a nice try, old tiger. Yes you did go over and congratulate us on our win several times, yet you are 1 respectful AAC fan out of 99 obnoxious ones. The majority of non-AAC posters on this thread aren't even a part of C-USA, just people calling it like they see it I guess. And when we witness so much arrogance, delusion, and inflammatory remarks from a team that get their asses handed to them and then proceed to come out with a list of 20 reason why they sucked to a terrible G4 team on this one and only occasion, you think we aren't gonna talk about that a bit? It's okay, you don't know who the "immature kids" are in this scenario, so I see you are still part of the delusion. You are just a nice delusional.

Surely they aren't hated on because they are asshats, are they? It must be because they are sooooo good.

Congratulations Memphis on a great football season! I know tonight didnt go as planned for your team, but i think this WKU team was on a mission regardless of who they played. Ive been treated with respect by the Memphis fans leading up to this game and I thank you for keeping things respectful. WKU knows how fast things can change from year to year and are just going to enjoy the moments we have, but we also know we are building a program and will continue to be relevant in all sports as we always have. Look forward to future games with Memphis or any other AAC team willing to step on the court or field with my TOPS .... again , congrats on a great season.

WOW

Honestly thought Memphis would be a more talented and better than what they displayed tonight. An 8-4 team, beat Houston and the AAC Champ Temple, but to be that bad of a defensive team is surprising. That soft AAC schedule couldn't prepare them forWKU.
The refs bailed out Memphis on several occasions so the score should have been worse. Congrats to WKU on another fine season

i said you were nice

That was a whoopin. Y'all have some real talent. I've watched a couple of wku games this year and I wasn't surprised by how good y'all are but I hoped our rested defense could have played better. Good win

The other stuff was silliness....except the ark state stuff, they suck.

Lol
