You are both more or less correct.
UCF's victory was only rewarded with a single bump to 14.
Miss St and NC St are ranked with 4 losses.
Fresno St is ranked with 3 losses.

+5 regardless of opponent

Is that really the AAC team hotel? It's hella far away.
Yeah. There are hotels designated for the AAC in both DC and Annapolis, but the team will be staying in DC because many events will take place there. There will be bar/wine crawls in Annapolis the night before the game, and parade and tailgate in Annapolis morning of the game. Outside of that, no official events in Annapolis that I've seen.
I don't particularly like that its disjointed like this, but (if we end up in this bowl) I'd be doing stuff in both DC and Annapolis anyway, so I chose to book with the team.

Rates at the AAC team hotel are still reasonable considering the big city location. It may go up after the announcement. You can always cancel if we play elsewhere.

How funny would it be if we ended up ranked this week in the CFP rankings? They’ve been so preposterous that I can almost believe they’d see this as a “quality loss” and move us in, especially since Boise lost. But nah...that would be too crazy.
It does sound crazy, but its either USF or 3 other (8-4) teams.

UCF may get worse than before when the Frost to Nebraska chatter gets hotter.

Projection for all AAC bowl tie-ins...
- Peach: Memphis vs at-large
- Military: USF vs ACC
- Hawaii: Navy vs MWC
- Birmingham: UCF vs SEC
- St. Petersburg: Temple vs CUSA
- Frisco: SMU vs at-large
- Boca Raton: Houston vs CUSA
- Cure: Tulane (or not filled by AAC if Tulane loses to SMU)

Not sure why thread title is so definitive. If Memphis wins tomorrow but loses the AACCG, they could just as easily get the invite to Annapolis.
Memphis will go to Birmingham if they don't win the AAC. Its closer to Memphis, and we went to that bowl last year.

If its another p5 team we play that wouldnt be horrible I guess.
Military bowl is paired with an ACC team, maybe UVA this year. Nice town, will make for a great trip. As someone else said Memphis/UCF loser will play against the other bowl tied-in with the P5 (Birmingham), since we played there last year.
-
For the last 4 years, the AAC has consistently sent its teams with the best overall records to bowl games against P5 or Independent opponents. The only exception would be in 2015 when Temple at (10-3) played Toledo in Boca Raton. But that year Toledo (10-2) was a worthy opponent and actually beat Temple in that game.
Navy (6-5) is not a shoe-in just because the Military bowl is held at their home stadium.

ND was a class experience. People were shaking our hands on the way out. Side note, I am glad we got to experience that game before they added music and replaced the field. It was like a CFB time capsule.
I was also at South Bend for the game. One N.D-bag shouted "USF sucks" as our group walked around the stadium to enter the gate, and a handful of others argued with us the entire train ride back to Chicago claiming our win was a fluke. They could not come to terms with what had just happened on the field. It was sweet, indeed.
On the flip side, it was amazing to attend a game in that storied field, and the students conducting the campus sale before the game were all gracious.
I didn't go to Jordan-Hare, but I've heard their fans were nothing but class as well.

Absolutely! Nothing was as sweet as taking Auburn’s money while kicking their ass. Let’s just get these teams scheduled and get on with it.
Taking ND's money and the W was sweeter. Dunno which was more money, but their haughtiness is haughtier.

I cut back thinking the stick around 100% when that statement about winning and people still not showing up and covering the team was made. Add in no Big 12 and he was gone.This job wasn't what he thought it was going to be. Sad but true.
Yep, that's when i knew he was leaving... sounded like Joe Madden talking.

Well, my saga continues.
It's a good thing I called Cobb Lane B & B directly, because they said they would not honor my reservation, since they were already sold out when I made it through Booking.com.
I am open to hotel suggestions, for one room for two nights in Birmingham.
The Hyatt does not appear to be booked; try these links:
https://wynfrey.regency.hyatt.com/en/hotel/home.html
If it is booked, the Sheraton is also a good option. The team luncheon is there on Wednesday and its within walking distance to Uptown where the pep rally and street fest will be taking place. Price is reasonable.
Its a ways off from Dreamland and Five Points(as is the Hyatt), but there will be complimentary shuttles from Uptown (where Sheraton is located) to both of those locations.

In case you didn't see it on the main board, word is that Hyatt is the AAC hotel, Westin is the SEC hotel.

I emailed the bowl committee; the AAC hotel is the Hyatt regency
Thanks for passing that along. It looks like Sheraton is a neutral hotel.

Probably. This suggests that the Westin may be the USC team hotel:

Military Bowl
in USF South Florida Bulls Athletics

Bar crawl is in Annapolis. The team would have a bunch of events in DC that I, obviously, would not participate in. The stuff I'd do in DC would not be related to the bowl game.
This is the bowl related stuff in DC from last year.
TEAM BOWL WEEK IN WASHINGTON, D.C.
Players, coaches and staff from the participating teams enjoy a variety of entertaining and engaging events during their stay in the nation’s capital. Past events have included:
