I try to determine, in a perfect world where we all go undefeated OOC, and all those OOC teams are solid, which one of us would have the best resume at the end of the year. Who would benefit the conference most with an undefeated season. i.e. who SHOULD win the AAC in 2021.

Here is my ranking. Tried to also rank opponents in descending order for comparison.

Ranking:
1) Tulsa: Ohio State, Oklahoma State, Arkansas State, UC Davis
2) Cincinnati: Notre Dame, Indiana, Miami (not Miami), Murray State
3) Tulane: Oklahoma, Mississippi, UAB, Morgan State
4) USF: Florida, BYU, NC State, Florida A&M
5) Navy: Notre Dame, Army, Marshall, Air Force
6) UCF: Louisville, Boise, UConn, ?
7) ECU: South Carolina, Marshall, App State, Charleston Southern
8) Memphis: Mississippi State, UTSA, Arkansas State, Nicholls
9) Temple: Boston College, Rutgers, Akron, Wagner
10) SMU: TCU, Louisiana Tech, North Texas, Abilene Christian
11) Houston: Texas Tech, Rice, Grambling State, ?

Notes:
-Holy crap a CCG rematch!!
-Tulsa over Cindy was a tough call. Both had CFP teams on their slate. Tulsa got the nod due to a) ND getting embarrassed and b) Indiana has to go back to play road MAC games next year, and will struggle
-Tulane over USF by a hair. Had to go with the Oklahoma head to head over Florida
-Temple was really tough to rank. They have two P5 teams, but not strong ones
-This is a pretty good slate for showing our stuff. Surprised how much I dropped ECU(who I thought had a halfway decent schedule) as I kept adding teams

Interested to see everyone else's picks, to hear why mine are stupid, to hear how X team should be higher because they have more cache than Tulsa... Go crazy.

Tulsa misses UCF and ECU

Cincy misses Houston and Memphis

The best outcome would be for one of them to face an undefeated team in the championship game. UCF getting another p5 game and the AAC adjusting the schedule so Tulsa, UCF, and Cincy avoid each other would set up the ideal situation. So trade ECU for Cincy and trade UCF (they miss Houston and Tulsa) for Houston respectfully. Hopefully it goes well enough we are fighting about which of the three undefeated teams get to play for the play off spot.
