I remember that time. The right decision was to go back to the MW. We would have been relegating our Basketball program to the Big West, and the American for football, was well, the American. A lot will change in 2024. Everybody needs to just improve their programs, and see what happens. That is what we have done.
The AAC would be loaded if we had SDSU, its a shame
Loaded is someone when they have bad seasons are still considered a dangerous opponent... Just b/c flavor of the month is currently performing at their expectations isn't by all means a loaded team for this league.
So no, I wouldn't put SDSU in the "Loaded" category for the AAC.
Man, Houston is the only program in the AAC that can relate to the success we have had the past three years. Cinci can as well, but that seems like a long time ago. Not bad for "Flavor of the Month."

Past three years? You saying 2015,2016, and 2017?
I ask because I show Navy 24-7 vs SDSU 27-6; Navy ranked in the final CFP 21 and 25 with SDSU not in sight, and Navy ending one year 18/18 in the polls vs SDSU #25/25 a different year. I guess your P6 bowl wins feel like Navy's P5 Bowl win.

We won the fiesta bowl a few years back and finished with a top 10 ranking. I'll sit here waiting for SDSU to do the same.

You people are comical. SDSU had the best record in the past 30 games, other than two other teams. Do you know who those other teams are?
Anyway, you all know the reality. Just enjoy.

Nah, the MW board is fun. We all despise each other. It's the way a conference should be. Unlike the love fest of this silly confederation.

RE: Sleeping giant San Diego St about to wake up.
Who's comical?
Your twists and turns are like Jim Carrey's classic physical comedy.
Last 30 games? What even is that? Is it like two and a fraction seasons? Before this artificial "last 30 games" you said past three years, and I had to ask... I mean I didn't THINK you meant three full seasons, because 2014 ended with you losing to low-ceiling Navy in Navy's hometown Poinsettia Bowl.
Last thirty games for Navy is ALMOST '15-'17 seasons. And I highlighted already that Navy's end results for the two completed seasons exceed SDSU's.
So I'm not sure what's comical, because I'm not sure what you want to compare. You want to link to Houston but we're talking about a timeframe where Navy NEVER trailed Houston in conference standings (tied or ahead of em).
So again, I'm not sure what you think you're measuring over what timeframe.
Please help us understand, and then maybe just maybe we'll be able to validate your feelings.

Look, I am not going to compare SDSU to Navy. There really is not a comparison. You know that. This is silly.
Just win the Commander in Chiefs Trophy this year. That should be your main goal, first and foremost.

Just go back and enjoy who and where you are. You should be and are in the MWC. The AAC has moved on and separated itself from the MWC. So have fun in the G4.

RE: Sleeping giant San Diego St about to wake up.
SFSU's problem is that USF started ranked and they did not, classic G4 problem.
On top of that, if both lose one, the AAC has two more teams in the hopper for the NY6, the MWC does not.

I could go back that far, or talk about 700 wins as a DI/FBS, or Cotton Sugar Rose and Orange Bowl appearances, or a national brand, or just the last 15 years of sustained winning rather than the last thirty games or whatever.
But I really only need one word to compare Navy and SDSU:
Scoreboard.

Seriously.......when were those Bowl Games played?
Since we are talking about "History," you realize that SDSU has a 3-1 record against Navy, right? Ah man, you sucked me in. You win. Well done.
Now go win the CiC Trophy. That is your main goal. It currently sits in Colorado Springs from what I understand.

SDSU fans have been talking about the "Sleeping Giant" for years. Funny thing is our old AD from the 80s, Fred Day, actually coined this phrase and called us the 'Miami of the West' for a while as well. It looked like he was right in the early 90s, but we stupidly fired Al Luginbill, and went into the toilet from 1997 until 2009.
With that, that seems like ancient history now.
- Three Conference Titles in five years
- Running Back U (Hillman, Muema, Price, Kazee, Pumphrey, Penny......)
- Seven straight Bowl games
- Two straight seasons as a ranked team
- Two straight Bowl wins
One thing that SDSU fans will agree on is we have surpassed the Mountain West, and continue to get better. We would all support a 'Best of the Rest' conference with some of the Rocky Mountain schools, and some of the Texas schools. Doubt that would happen though.
My opinion:
West - SDSU, UNLV (for Vegas), Colorado State, Boise State, BYU (even though that program is ****** right now)
East (Or whatever you call it) - Houston, SMU, UTSA, New Mexico and Memphis
1. I have a Sports Illustrated from the early 90's predicting that San Diego St and Colorado would be in the PAC 10.
2.Problem is this: the college football contract was signed up until 2030 I think. No new conferences can get in to the system. It's the 10 conferences plus ND who signed the deal. The only changes I see is Missouri and Nebraska rejoining the Big 12, as there is no GOR in the SEC for Mizzou to have to worry about and I suspect the SEC doesn't really want them anymore. I also don't think the Big 10 schools really want Nebraska either. Bad realignment moves.
Man, I would love to see that Sports Illustrated. Could you take a picture of it and send it to me? If so, I will send you my email address via PM.

Funny thing is our old AD from the 80s, Fred Day, actually coined this phrase and called us the 'Miami of the West' for a while as well. It looked like he was right in the early 90s, but we stupidly fired Al Luginbill, and went into the toilet from 1997 until 2009.
With that, that seems like ancient history now.
- Three Conference Titles in five years
- Running Back U (Hillman, Muema, Price, Kazee, Pumphrey, Penny......)
- Seven straight Bowl games
- Two straight seasons as a ranked team
- Two straight Bowl wins
One thing that SDSU fans will agree on is we have surpassed the Mountain West, and continue to get better. We would all support a 'Best of the Rest' conference with some of the Rocky Mountain schools, and some of the Texas schools. Doubt that would happen though.
My opinion:
West - SDSU, UNLV (for Vegas), Colorado State, Boise State, BYU (even though that program is ****** right now)
East (Or whatever you call it) - Houston, SMU, UTSA, New Mexico and Memphis
1. I have a Sports Illustrated from the early 90's predicting that San Diego St and Colorado would be in the PAC 10.
2.Problem is this: the college football contract was signed up until 2030 I think. No new conferences can get in to the system. It's the 10 conferences plus ND who signed the deal. The only changes I see is Missouri and Nebraska rejoining the Big 12, as there is no GOR in the SEC for Mizzou to have to worry about and I suspect the SEC doesn't really want them anymore. I also don't think the Big 10 schools really want Nebraska either. Bad realignment moves.
Man, I would love to see that Sports Illustrated. Could you take a picture of it and send it to me? If so, I will send you my email address via PM.

I remember that time. The right decision was to go back to the MW. We would have been relegating our Basketball program to the Big West, and the American for football, was well, the American. A lot will change in 2024. Everybody needs to just improve their programs, and see what happens. That is what we have done.
The AAC would be loaded if we had SDSU, its a shame

Just win the Commander in Chiefs Trophy this year. That should be your main goal, first and foremost.
It's true you can't compare any of the American or MWC teams to Navy. Navy has a national championship.
I could go back that far, or talk about 700 wins as a DI/FBS, or Cotton Sugar Rose and Orange Bowl appearances, or a national brand, or just the last 15 years of sustained winning rather than the last thirty games or whatever.
But I really only need one word to compare Navy and SDSU:
Scoreboard.
Serious question here because I can't find the info. What is history head to head record between the Aztecs and Navy?

Yea, that was a weird place for him to go, considering the context.

SDSU better desperately hope they are ahead of USF and UCF in the CFP rankings when they come out. Because if they are not, they have absolutely no hope of passing either.

Again, Aztec fans do not need to "hope." We already have more quality wins than both UCF and USF.
If I "hope" for anything, it is for either USF or UCF to go undefeated, so that we can put this argument to rest. The gnashing of the teeth here would seriously make my off-season. However, this place is such an echo-chamber you could convince yourselves of anything.
