we still have those contracts that CUSA 2.0 left us. And we have the same access to the best of the non AQ bowl. In 5 years maybe there will be a difference, but the way conference realignment goes CUSA and the AAC won't look the same as they do now.

also, my first prediction was wrong. A Memphis fan beat the butt pirates to it.

RE: oh how the delusional have fallen
Any AAC fan who thought the conference was going to hang on to any decent bowl that the Big East was contracted to....is delusional. You don't lose WVU, Syracuse, Pitt, Louisville and Rutgers in a 2yr span and expect to keep the good bowls when the contracts are up.
Bottom line is the crown jewel for the Gang of Five is the Liberty Bowl and that is if the Liberty Bowl does not go with the Big 5 when the contract is up. Other then the Liberty it is mostly no name bowls with a crappy before Christmas date that hurts attendance unless it is a 6hr or shorter drive for one of the fan bases.

I have thought for a long time that minus a miracle run and a BCS bid that the best options for a Gang of 5 schools is to schedule well OOC. ECU we have VT at home this year and play UNC and NCST on the road which represents a better opponent then 99% of our Bowl options. Problem in the future is the Big 5 will make scheduling them OOC even more difficult for Gang of 5 schools. I guess on a semi positive note there are still a lot of programs in the Gang of 5 that I would be interested in watching ECU play. Sad part is the Big 5 is putting more daylight between themselves and the rest of us and we are seeing the definite emergence of a Tier system where CUSA and AAC are Second Tier. It is the reality most of us face....far less tv money, crappy bowls and tougher to get one for one scheduling agreements.

RE: oh how the delusional have fallen
You know, you never see a thread on the AAC board about Conf USA, but you get one of these on the COnf USA board almost everyday. Wonder why? Let's revisit a word that does not get used in our culture very often, but never the less is an oldy but goody. Ready boys and girls, COVET. Covet means a yearning or desire to have something that one does not have. There are no threads about Conf USA on the AAC board, because the fans of that board do not COVET anything about Conf USA. I suspect the coveting will be over, when threads like these are finished for good.

Finally, a voice of reason stating the realistic picture. I've been saying it all along. We've been having pissing matches about whose the weakest big sister. If any of us think our TV monies will increase, you are freakin nuts! The B5 will get a huge majority of the tv monies and time slots, we'll be left the scraps, playing on Thursday nights and having fans watch us on ESPN 48 or some obscure internet feed.

Actually, I'm good with CUSA for now. Also, I think you're making a broad generalization.

By posting this you will be diagnosed by 'Murica 12 SUMBITCH fans as having chronic butthurt along with a bad case of jealousy and you've obviously been eating too many sour grapes.

It's been going on since UCF, Houston, and SMU were waiting around for a week to announce so they could piggy back with Boise States announcement. We've all been told how magical the 'Murica 12 SUMBITCH is.

Consider in the privacy of your own heart and mind if you would truly want your school to spurn an AAC invitation before expressing your views on the subject.

Many posters with AAC disdain had a miraculous conversion toward the AAC after their school's inclusion in the AAC.

It also has to do with the fact that a subset of fans of the defecting schools have been complete and total a-holes about the situation. Doesn't matter if it's only a few, it's been enough to pollute the well. I enjoy a number of the posters from those schools, and have real world friends who are alums, but outside of the soccer thread, I'll be glad when this divorce is final...

Im not envious, jealous or overjoyed about anything the Murka12 (I mean 11, I don't see Navy ever joining the ACC, I mean the Murka) has. They are nothing more than a Gang of 5 schools that will beat the FU$K out of each other every year. Not one school will separate and dominate the other schools, which is what you need if you have a chance if you want a BCS bowl. I say Murka12 rarely gets one.

Did a FIU fan just post this? Seriously? If the AAC is FCS then was your former SBC home DIII?
