You have the 3 newcomers join Wich St/Navy, Tulsa, SMU, and Houston in a West division.

With the best of the West now in the AAC it’s a de facto P6. Unless the MAC/SBC/C-USA/MWC produce an undefeated champ and the AAC champ has multiple losses the AAC champ is pretty much a lock for the NY6.

Elsewhere I had suggested that the AAC think bigger.

West: Army, Navy, Air Force, BYU, Boise, San Diego State, SMU and Houston

East: Cincinnati, Temple, East Carolina, UCF, USF, Memphis, Tulane and Tulsa

All the new adds and Navy are football only. The other ten schools, are all sports and Wichita State is Olympic Sports only.

This would likely require that ESPN guarantee the champion a seat at the NY6 table when the CFP deal is renegotiated.
