No CCG but if we win out the regular season and Temple loses the CCG; I say we are ranked higher which is what matters to the NYday bowl... we need a little help for sure

What does our ranking matter if we dont win the AAC title? No conference championship no invite to NY Bowl.

The highest-ranked champion from the "Group of Five" conferences (The American, C-USA, Mid-American, Mountain West, and Sun Belt) is guaranteed a berth if the group's top team is not in the playoff.[38][39]

Not expecting Temple to lose. Push comes to shove, we didn't take care of business when we needed to take care of business. It doesn't diminish the turn around over the past season and a half. Let's j

I don't know.  Best season ever and much of the team returning.  I think we'll be fine.  Hopefully, we'll have a new DC.

Indeed sports fans...you have to be the conference champion to get that invite. Not highest ranked, necessarily, but highest ranked conference champion. Two requirements must be met.

Gotta beat Memphis first.  Not an easy game at all.

What's funny is that if we win out, no doubt we'll be ranked (I doubt Temple will ever be with that Army loss) and no fricking conference championship. Our margin of error was small and a 7-1 conference record wouldn't have gotten it done.

Actually, Army is not a bad team this season. They have Notre Dame in San Antonio next week. They could very well win that game as well as their game against Air Force this week. Coach Monken is a **** good coach - good enough to take his team to Baltimore this year and upset Navy.

Let's just finish this season strong and win out. The last three games aren't automatic W's... which I'm glad. It makes watching the games more enjoyable vice playing FCS schools that no one cares about.

11-2 would be fantastic but marred by the 2 losses.

The FSU game was the statement game to the local populace that we were relevant and we got steamrolled. Temple was the conference championship game and we got destroyed.

It's the timing and the caliber of the losses that put the pallor on the 11-2 hypothetical season. Beat Temple and lose to Navy and our 10-2 regular season is an order of magnitude better because we're in conference championship game.

The day we win our first conference championship will be special. Whether its this year, next, or in 10 years. Hopefully we keep this winning mentality going.

A lot of it is luck of the draw from the schedule makers.  Temple has the easiest possible conference schedule.  Our defense doesn't deserve a conference championship though.
