RE: AAC vs G4 in Bowls: My Observation
So everybody comes running over here to brag their conference champion can beat the 6th place AAC school. Is anybody really surprised? Probably best the 4 other G-5 champs meet each other in Bowls instead of hanging all your hopes on beating someone from the AAC.

RE: AAC vs G4 in Bowls: My Observation
Maybe you all should understand that G5/P5 is a monetary designation and is very loosely correlated with on the field play. Outside of the top 3 or so teams of each P5 team, the rest of those conferences aren't much better than the top teams in ANY FBS conference.

Not sure ECU fans have even a peg leg to stand on in the argument. Fired Ruffin who had a rough go due to the departure of Lincoln Riley and we bore the fruits of that this season.

You were ALL left behind when the P5 was formed. Like it or not, you're all stuck with the rest of us in the G5.

Don't be like the Democrats. Accept reality for what it is and move on already.

You guys aren't just losing your bowl games, you're getting KILLED in them. Don't think for a minute that the national sports media doesn't notice this.

You're correct, it doesn't exist. Nor does the P5 or G5. They are media made up designations. There is FBS.

BC1 is trolling the hell out of you. Well played. 04-cheers

When the only people saying the AAC is part of a "Power Six" are fans of the AAC, it's safe to say that they aren't part of the power 5.

Facing these teams regularly and than ask your medical doc at season's end who's left for your bowl game.

Houston
Navy
Temple
Cincinnati
USF
Memphis
East Carolina
Etc.

If you think the Fiesta Bowl, in Baylor's first big bowl game and conference championship in decades, is comparable to the Boca Bowl or the Cure Bowl, you're nuts. Same thing for FSU in the Peach Bowl; it's a major bowl game, and it's nuts to compare it to being unmotivated about a **** game on Tuesday night in a half-empty stadium because the G4 team didn't even travel any fans.

Honestly, I wasn't even aware that Temple and East Carolina were FBS until a couple of years ago. Those teams don't move the needle at all with perception.
Navy and USF I think of as teams that don't typically do well, but have above average seasons every now and then. Cincinnati is similar but I think of them as on an upper tier from the rest.
Memphis was hot garbage for nearly a decade, and Arkansas State whipped on them a couple of seasons in a row, so I look at them as a CUSA/Sun Belt team that have had a couple of above average seasons.
Houston is the only name that moves the needle with any factor. And that's only recently.

lol at FCS move up fans. You apparently didn't see the P6 stickers on our helmets. They have been mentioned several times. I would add that those are OFFICIAL stickers---proof positive the AAC is P6----The debate is OFFICIALLY over. (Drops mike and walks off stage).

Hey, if Navy, Temple, and USF all win our bowl games, the AAC can have a winning bowl record - for the first time ever.

It's a battle royal in the AAC. G4's don't go through that. It's taxing on the body

ya, you guys are the frecking SEC. Seriously, I have watched the AAC bowls games this year, and so far, other than Tulsa, I have yet to see an AAC team with superior talent to the G5 school they were playing, you can use some lame excuse about being tired, or not being focused on the game, but no one is buying it, so far, the eye test tells me you have been beaten by teams with better talent. We will see how it goes from here on out, your best teams are about to suit up, if they win, and especially dominate, then order is restored, atleast at the top of conference, but if they get beat by these "inferior teams" you can make a case that the AAC isn't as much of a power conference as you think.

"Oh, good trolling, he nearly got me to react!" I thought, having initially reached for my keyboard before a second look.

But after a third and fourth look...maybe he is serious?
So on the off chance that wasn't just bait, some perspective for you:
Since 2003 (the Johnson-Niumatalolo era) Navy is tied for 20th in all FBS for most wins. In that same time Navy has more wins over auto-BCS/CFP contract conference teams as a non- auto-BCS/CFP contract conference than anyone, no exceptions. That stretch includes multiple end of year rankings and multiple double-digit-win seasons.
But it doesn't matter what you think: over 13 million TV viewers have tuned in to see a Navy game this season alone.

Really, what you think of P6 AAC teams reflects more about your lack of college football knowledge than it does anything about the P6 AAC teams about which you are daydreaming.

"I wasn't aware ECU was FBS until a couple years ago." So you've been following college football for only a few years huh? Welcome! It's a wonderful sport. Read up about it so you can figure out who the teams are and after a couple years you can start posting on here. Focus for now on your homework and doing chores etc.-- The important things in the life of a 14 year old girl.
Cheers!
