And P5 away games at that. And some are ranked.

Don't confuse that dude with facts. I think that there were only 7 P5 teams, which were Penn State, South Carolina, Maryland, Baylor, UCLA, Oklahoma and Georgia Tech.

Then 2 of the other losses were to Navy and BYU.

Tulane lost at home to Georgia Tech, Houston lost at home to UTSA, Temple lost at home to Navy, and UConn lost at home to BYU. SMU lost to North Texas. You can try to avoid those facts, but they are undeniable. Even a 2-2 record at home in those 4 plus SMU actually beating a C-USA school and the AAC is a much more respectable 4-8!!!!

Hopefully the Pirates can get a pair of P5 wins still.

USF should roll NC State next week.

Cool! Thanks for sharing!

How are the other conferences doing OOC?
MWC
Cusa
Mac

AAC is 1-7 vs P5, 0-4 vs others, 5-0 vs FCS
CUSA is 0-12 vs P5, 7-0 vs others, 5-1 vs FCS
MWC is 2-10 vs P5, 0-1 vs others, 7-0 vs FCS
MAC is 2-8 vs P5, 0-4 vs others, 8-1 vs FCS
SBC is 1-4 vs P5, 1-2 vs others, 7-0 vs FCS

The others group are the non P5 schools in FBS

No question, our schools have had to play some very good P5 schools and on the road, such as Oklahoma, UCLA, and South Carolina.

Still, 1-11 is still 1-11, and we are not off to a good start in backing up Aresco's claim that we should be thought of as a 'power' conference.

That would indicate to me that CUSA is the strongest with their 7-0 vs our 0-4, despite us doing slightly better in the other two categories. Worth mentioning is that neither UCF or ECU play "other" teams. And Cincinnati hasn't yet, but will.

Yes but I think you also have to take into account who those teams are. We will get a better idea once season is halfway and see where those teams stand

No problem bro! I also want to add USF lost to Maryland at home too!! The AAC had ample chances to get wins over FBS competition, the results were pathetic!!!!

Yes, you cannot compare records without comparing SOS. And the AAC has clearly had some very tough P5 opponents. We really need more data points to draw conclusions.

A couple of AAC fans owe me an apology for saying I was wrong about Vanderbilt being a terrible team this year...

SOS means nothing without winning. I think the AAC may have the strongest number of teams of the G5. That may end up hurting the AAC since they may knock each other off. ECU, UCF, Cinci and Houston is hard to see one of the teams run undefeated in the conference. That doesn't include WTF conference games that happens to usually a strong team in a conference. In addition, BYU games may end up hurting the conference as well. Houston or UCF needs to win one of these games.

And not many at home I would guess.

C-USA is 7-0 vs the G5?? Might have to give them the nod as top G5 conference at the moment. Can't say I saw that coming...impressive!!!
