Aresco and the other G5 Commissioners should organize or schedule a "play in" game. To me, that would be even more compelling than a bowl game. Bowl games, in many cases, are let downs anyway with coaches moving around and long layoffs during holidays. 

I'll add to that. Also expand the playoffs to 8 teams. All P5 winners, Play in game winner, and 2 at large teams.

That's not going to happen.  Aresco wants to separate the AAC from the other G5 conferences.  Agreeing to this would be admitting that we are the same.

But that would  exacerbate our second class status as a G5

It is what it is.

I agree with this, but you can't add a play-in game to an 8 team playoff, just make it P5 champs, highest ranked G5 champ, and 2 at large teams

Maybe, but that doesn't mean you give up.

We're definitely the 6th best conference. Just like the CFL is part of professional football's P2.

We are. Aresco has too many friends in high places to not get in.

Winning the conference championship is more important than going to a NY6 bowl, in my opinion.

Last year a good San Diego State team lost to South Alabama, they could always trip up to one of their "fairly easy wins".

I disagree.  We are trying to build a perennial top 25 program.  That happens by getting top 25 recruits.  We lose a ton of players this year.  Winning a NY6 bowl game on national TV will have a bigger impact on signing day than a G5 conference championship.

Either way, we can't go NY6 without a conference championship.
