A Friendly Reminder About The Conference Format
No more divisions; it's a free for all. Looking at the schedules for the top 6, we are going to have the toughest time. We almost have to hope that Houston is pretty good so they can knock off at least one of our competitors.
MEMPHIS

A: SMU, Navy, Cincinnati

HOUSTON
H: UCF

Navy, UCF and then SMU have the easiest schedules. We have the toughest one.
UCF will be circling our game as the most important. IF they can beat us on the road, they will have the advantage. Cincinnati will be circling their road game against UCF. IF they get by them, they will have the advantage. Same with Navy and their home game against us.
A lot can change, but I would have to think that Cincinnati at UCF is going to determine one of the participants in the championship game and is probably the conference game of the year. The winner has a good shot at having only 1 loss. IF Navy beats us, they have a shot at going undefeated in conference.
It will be tough for us and I think we can do it, but our conference SOS is off the charts. I don't want to use the P word, but if we go undefeated, our schedule will be much tougher than Clemson's or anyone in the PAC12.
