I'd say that would be a little disappointing. I'm hopeful this makes the AAC a consistent 4-5 bid league.

Ten years ago, I would agree with you. However, the AAC is still on the outside looking in, and the game is fixed on behalf of the Power 5 (plus the OBE in Ball).
If the league can garner 3 bids every year, 4 bids somewhat frequently, and 5 bids on a great year, doesn't that seem like a reasonable and obtainable cycle?

Hopefully a rising tide can help other teams near the bubble. The RPI ramifications are significant. I don't think you're *just* adding WSU (and WSU may not make it every year). But I do think you're adding some quality depth at the top. Which may make enough of a difference in the computer numbers/resume wins to pull one of the teams in the middle of the pack into at-large territory.

Pay no mind to butthurt fan LOL... With you guys and solid AAC basketball lineup, this league shouldn't have no problem getting 3 plus bids regularly.

UConn Memphis Cincinnati SMU Temple Houston UCF will be sure of it.

Ok, I'm all ready tired of everyone being soooo nice to wsu, ok welcome so there you have it, let me tell y'all something about your damn stupid football program that you don't understand, it sux, it will always suck! So be yourself, by yourself, stay away from the facts becouse it hurts deep down where you don't go, it will be 10 years before you will even win your first football game in the AAC and that will be against Cincinnati
Yeah so welcome
Let that sink in
