I'm like Quo. I don't give a flip what's good for the American. I care about what is good for Memphis first.
The best thing for Memphis is to beat an undefeated team in the American Championship game.
NOPE. The best thing for Memphis is to have home field in the CCG.
We can't do that unless UCF beats USF AND loses 2 other games (not happening), OR
USF loses one game, then beats UCF, but has a lower CFP ranking than Memphis, while Memphis runs the remaining table. In THAT scenario, Memphis gets home field.
So...GO COOGS! lol
Well, if it's cold or rainy, we wouldn't really have much of an advantage playing at home.
Well, if we have many more injuries on D, it won't matter b/c we won't have enough players to play the game, lol.
You have to pull for whatever advantages you might be able to have.
I know where you are coming from. I would just rather play an undefeated opponent in the championship game, even on the road. If we win, we are conference champs and I would think we take a big lead in the poll, especially if we don't lose another game.

you realize you needed a major comeback to beat houston?
i have usf winning but easily is a stretch
houston might be the most talented squad in the AAC, roster wise...remove the 5 turnovers a game ..which are mental errors , and houston is undefeated and not one game close....
"we are good when we aren't bad"
"we are good when we don't mess up"
made up example: a elite dline constantly getting 15yd penalties costing them games doesn't erase the fact that they are elite
Elite d lineman don’t constantly get 15 yard penalties.

By way of a second half blowout would be the Applewhite trademark loss.

I guess no one on the ESPNU crew knows how to white balance video.
This looks like a 1970s flashback episode with the major Amber color push.

Houston is due for a win, and let's face it, we are arguably due for a loss. Houston comes in with nothing to lose, and unlike every other team we've faced so far, Houston has the size and speed to match up with us talent-wise. We're not used to that.
Hopefully, the Coog choke versus Memphis has them down, or something.
The Houston - USF series is rather weird, with the Cougars winning two AAC matchups in 2013 and 2014, and USF winning two C-USA games in 2001 and 2002. So this is the rubber match, for now.
Goooo BULLS!
I hate to say this but I think it is best for UCF and the AAC that USF wins. I don't think it will be easy.
FWIW, it won't affect the AAC. Even if Houston beats us today, we'll just run the table from there and get the NY6 slot anyway.
And I don't hate to say at all that I hope Austin Pea somehow beats UCF by a score of 55-0. Better yet, make it 60-0. And i couldn't care less what impact it has on the AAC, UCF losing always comes first.
I hope this comes back to bite you today...

Houston offense looks overmatched. USF offense is just doing its typical early game sputtering, but they will put up some points.
