I know there are many reasons, but please just list one per post. I'll start it off:

* conference-wide piss poor football attendance

Wrong time zone

No sticker

At least you have the moniker The Fun Belt. MWC doesn't have that

MWC and C-USA should be the new No Fun Leagues, now that the NFL allows celebrations.

Only one team nationally recognized. Hell even the Big 12 has two....

No markets.

Top football school is a Junior College.

Obviously because so many turned down the invite after subtraction sand additions. 2 schools backed out of joining the new big east. The stickers are cool though maybe someday teams will change their minds about wanting to join the AAC.

New Mexico has the full package aside from football. If they and Iowa switched places on the map, UNM would be in the B1G. The rest are either small time, have too many warts or are too remote to ever be taken too seriously. Usually, it's at least two of the three.

10 out of 12 of our schools would rank 1st in the MWC football recruiting rankings right now according to 247. The level of recruits coming into the two conferences in the major sports is not even close right now.

Since 2013, current AAC schools are 10-7 against the mwc.

Nine of 12 American teams have appeared in major bowl games (NY6, BCS, Bowl Coalition, traditional New Year's):

SMU (Rose, Cotton)
Navy (Rose, Cotton, Sugar, Orange)
Tulane (Rose, Sugar)
Houston (Cotton, Peach)
Temple (Sugar)
Cincinnati (Sugar, Orange)
Tulsa (Sugar, Orange)
UConn (Fiesta)
UCF (Fiesta)

Only four MWC teams have ever played in major bowl games:

Boise (Fiesta)
Hawaii (Sugar)
Air Force (Cotton, Sugar)
Wyoming (Sugar)

I think each team in this league has about 2 million reasons why the AAC is not P5.

ECU Peach Bowl, traditional New Year bowl

Sorry. Major Bowl Games are:

Rose
Orange
Sugar
Cotton through Jan 1995, Jan 2014 - present
Fiesta Jan 1982 - present
Peach Jan 2014 - present

These are the 4 tradtional New Year's games with the Fiesta Bowl joining in the 1980s.

The Cotton Bowl dropped out in 1996 as it lost its tie to the SWC champion and was not included in the original Bowl Alliance. The 1995 SWC champion (last year of the conference) played in the Sugar.

The Cotton Bowl and Peach Bowl were elevated back to major bowl status in 2014 as part of the NY6.

The Peach was always a nice bowl game, but it never even featured a Top 10 team until 2004. It featured only four Top 10 teams in 46 years until it became a NY6 Bowl.

Hmm I seem to misremember Number 12 ECU playing in the Peach Bowl on New Years Day in 1992. Compare that to number 14 Houston playing on December 31st sorry.

And no the first top 10 team to play in the Peach Bowl was in 1970. Sorry it doesn't fit your anti-East Carolina rhetoric. Sorry.
