I don't punch below my weight class. Heart just not in it. Ark state, lol, gtfo. Central western Mankato Kalamazoo state...whatever...
Where those uconn fans...they had game. Houston was ok until there season got nuked.
We need some limits in here. Overfished.
Kahn, you don't have a weight class. You go troll the P5's, you get laughed at for being little old Memphis, you go troll the G5's you get laughed at for trolling schools you guys see as inferior.
Go find a Pro Sports board to play on, that should get the blood flowing a little.
I will admit, you guys have multiple trolls right now. Not really any way to get rid of them though.
Get rid of them! Are you kidding? I happen to have my own personal peon and I kinda like her. HEY FARTFACE!!! WHERE ARE YA? There ain't nothing happening on your board, why don't you come on over give me one of those bat shite rants of yours. Gee it's great to be in the p6

I'm glad realignment rumors are over so we can assemble our troll army and fight the G4 menace.

RE: Poll: Should We Ban The G4ers From This Board
I'll be the first to say that the AAC is far and away the best of the G5 leagues. You guys lead in attendance, wins over P5 schools, television revenue, and name brand recognition. You have the best of the relatively new-to-FBS football programs (UConn, USF, UCF) and have programs who have been around a very long time and won a whole lot of games (Navy, Houston, ECU, several others). Also, quite impressively, the league had such a good year that many metrics rated it better than the Big 12.
At the same time, there is more TV revenue difference between the lowest paid P5 league & the AAC than there is between the AAC and the lowest paid G5 league. On the field, Houston lost to San Diego State and UCF lost in a virtual home game to an Arkansas State team that started 0-4. Also, part of being a Power conference should mean that there should be a contender for the College Football Playoff later than October. Houston had the opportunity, and I wish they'd been able to do it, but they didn't get it done. It's hard to put the AAC on par with the Big 12 or Pac-12 when not one time in three years has the league come close to making the CFP.
To me, the AAC is a tweener conference. It's better than the rest of the G5, but it's not close to the Power 5. Even if the next TV contract yields a raise to $10M/year/school, that reinforces my point. It would still leave the AAC at less than half what the Pac-12 and Big 12 make, but would provide distance from the next highest paid G5 conference. For now, though, there isn't a massive TV revenue separation between the AAC and the rest of the G5, even if there is an exposure difference.
BTW, I'd really like to see my App State Mountaineers get a game against an AAC team. They're 20-4 against the Sun Belt and 3-0 so far against the MAC.

Id say this is a pretty fair assessment of where things are at.
P4
T2 (tweener)
G4
The above is how I feel it breaks down.

Eh, it is what it is. Heck, most AAC members do not even want to be in the AAC. Too bad they do not check all the boxes.

So for the record, most of us would agree with this post 100%, so thank you for taking the time to post a cogent, well thought out and realistic assessment of the situation
Also...don't ever do this again...we are having too much fun with these Funbelt and MAAC crybabies right now....just let our narrative have its coarse.

No need to ban anyone. That discourages free thought and open discussion. And people being silly.
I like Oliphant's idea of raiding the G4 boards. If only we could find them. They're small and hard to locate on the interwebs.

The G6 thing is rather humerous as no one uses it but a couple of AAC fans. In reality you guys are G5 just like the rest of us except you guys get to sit at the front of the bus. That is not a knock, just reality, especially in the eyes of the P5.

Can't fault someone for wanting to move up or trying to prove they're good enough to take the next step. You should understand that since 49ers became D1 not that long ago. FWIW, some P5 teams aren't really P5 good. Teams like KU ride coattails and get paid big $ for their bad football.
