Our perennial bottom feeder team, one of the most moribund programs in FBS for the last 15 years just went into the stadium of an SEC team as a 24 point underdog and beat them And looked damn good doing it too.

They beat Arkansas. Whoopity ******* do. They also lost to perennial AAC bottom feeder Tulsa by 18 points at home last week. Tulsa also beat the best team in the MWC today. UCF's loss hurt and Temples was embarrassing but the AAC is still ahead of the MWC as the 6th best conference.

Agree with that point, although the MWC is having a very good season. Glad to see all the G5 conference having success against the loathed P5.

Hoping to see Houston have success later on this season in both sports. The battle for the AAC MBB crown should be exciting, with Houston, Memphis, Cincy, et al. in the mix, maybe Temple, Wichita, USF, and an improved UConn team.

Yah unfortunately this year does not look promising for my Coogs. Basketball season cant get here soon enough. The league's going to be really tough. Cant wait.

Wyoming and Boise are both good teams. Tulsa ain't bad this season.

I'm glad to see Boise getting recognition via inclusion in the top 25 polls.

The MWC and AAC will always be battling for FB prestige. MWC has a bunch of members that I would like to see in the AAC, including Air Force, Colorado State, SDSU, and a few others.

That's right - only two MWC vs. AAC matchups. Limited sample, but Tulsa pulled its weight.

However, as a fan of the G5 and Independents over the P5, it was great to see SDSU beating UCLA, Nevada beating Purdue, and Air Force beating Colorado.

You might prefer to see the AAC add one school for both sports, but this poll also allows you to vote to add 1 for FB, add 1 for the other sports, or stay at 11 teams.

OT NOTE: Interestingly, if UConn were no longer in the AAC this season, the AAC's RPI rank might be tied with that of the ACC. As it is, the AAC's RPI rank (25.34) is only slightly behind that of the ACC (25.79) at this point, heading into next weekend's matchup with GT @ Temple.


NOTE:

This poll is intended for AAC fans. If you're a fan of a different conference and want to vote, please vote on the basis of which option you think is best for the AAC conference.

Granger, is that you?

I would imagine that will change this week with the losses by Temple and UCF.

That is such a large sample size, we should certainly crown the AAC king of the G5’s based on the vast amount of games between the 2 conferences.

I say add BYU, their drama would be great for the AAC. There is one problem, though, BYU wants nothing to do with the AAC or any G5 conference.

AAC is still ranked #6 by RPI, only 1/2 point behind the AAC (25.79 vs. 25.29), despite today's losses.

I never stated that. What I quoted was talking about one game and my reference was about two games making the argument invalid.
I do know, and you do too, is that the AAC is the top conference outside of the A5. Why else would you G4ers be in here shouting that you are important too?

True, although BYU was trounced by Washington today.

But there may be other FB programs that might be interested, e.g. Colo St or Air Force FB.

Good point. Tulsa has had some good FB seasons in the AAC and hasn't pulled the conference down in any respects.

To the contrary, Tulsa's programs have performed remarkably well, considering the point that the enrollment may be lower than 10,000 students. Still, Tulsa is a sizable marketplace, and is a net benefit from ESPN's perspective. TUFB may also tap into the large OK City market.

Last but not least, Tulsa had a great deal to do with persuading Wichita State to join the AAC.

No you've had three bad seasons in five years in the American. Yall have had one good season and one mediocre season where you made a bowl but finished 4th in the division. Yall dont look that bad this year but I still think you finish 5th in the West (ahead of UH but behind everyone else).

Time to do a break down, by season. Seems to me that Tulane, SMU, and Navy have had ~ as many bad seasons as Tulsa has had. The only perennial strong teams were Memphis and Houston. Tulsa's been generally around the middle of the pack.

Also, it may be to clarify that we're talking about 6 seasons (2013 through 2018 = 6), not 5 seasons.

The main thing is that this board doesn't exist for trash talking AAC rivals, bur rather talking about topics of common interest.

See you when you post crap like this it tells me that you have no interest whatsoever in having a serious discussion and being civil. It comes across as very trollish and hijacks the thread. There’s nothing wrong with being a conference homer, but when you have absolutely no objectivity whatsoever it detracts from the thread. You’re literally bragging about being number six. Take a step back and think about how absurd that sounds. Sixth or seventh, you’re still not P5. The cartel hate you, they have contempt for you. You are a deplorable. Own it. Wear it as a badge of honor. Don’t beg and grovel for their acceptance. You will never get it.

I don't know who you're calling a troll, but all I see is average inter-conference banter. I respect the MWC - you're having a great year as a conference - hope you keep having success against the vile P5s.

You're right - it's debatable who is the #6 conference. By RPI rank, it's the AAC. By W-L records, its the MWC. And the Independents are having a pretty good year, due to the success of Army and BYU and the semi-independent ND.

What do you mean you don’t know who? The poster that I quoted. The one who claimed that Wyoming is the best team in the mountain west.

How am I a troll? For having a different opinion on who the best MWC team is? Obviously you're going to think its Boise, you're a Boise fan. I think its Wyoming. It's only week 4 we dont know that much about any of these teams yet so people can have different opinions. I explained my rationale for touting Wyoming. Their win over Mizzou is the best win by a MWC team. Maybe I'm wrong about Wyoming and if so we'll find out during the next few weeks of conference play, but it doesnt make me a troll to think they're the top team right now. You kn the other hand come over to the AAC board just to try to stir up ****. If anyone's a troll here, its you.
