Of course they'll still fight to be looked as differently from the G5. It will actually probably intensify since the reward for being the top G5 champ will become a shot in the playoff for a national championship as opposed to a consolation bowl game. The AAC will definitely want to be seen as a material step above over all of the G5 leagues.
