Ditch those legacy dogs for the best of the G5 and the P5 would deserve the title. But the top 10 of that group want the perennial doormats.

Can't say I'm the biggest fan of this whole P6 discussion - you could very well see 16 team super conferences in the next round of realignment so none of this will matter imo. Current P5 will probably have their pick of teams from the AAC, MWC, and Big 12 (as they are the weakest P5 conference from a financial perspective) to fill their slots. Any team in the AAC that helps the conference's claim of being "P6" will bolt for greener pastures and the league will have to start all over again. The financial disparity is too large. 

If we really were a true power conference then membership from teams would be sustainable and consistent. The fact is the AAC is at risk of having its good/marquee programs poached at any sign of realignment because it can't offer the financial potential that P5 offers. True P5 leagues don't have that problem.

Well she is right...the AAC does have more value. What that amount is is under question.

How is value determined?

By what others are willing to pay.  

What leverage do we have to ask for any more $ from the networks?

Correct...supply and demand

Leverage will be determined by tv viewing numbers and the number of bidders on AAC programing  (Espin, NBC, Fox...streaming services).

Low ball = $3 mil per year per team

High ball = $8 mil per year per team

Yesterday Florida Central got respect not the AAC. Opens the door a little wider for Florida Central to be included in next year's Playoff if they go undefeated.

Nobody cares about the Peach Bowl win today - just like nobody cared when Houston won a couple years ago and UCF won the Fiesta before that. You have to sustain it for people start noticing. UCF didn't before and Houston hasn't either. Also, you gotta get the AAC into the game every year to prove they are better than the other mid majors. Can't have a MAC or MW school in there. 

NEWS FLASH! - Nobody cares about any bowl game except the teams that played in them.

I think the win will continue to get discussion during the off season buts let’s face it does it really matter? Is anyone on this board really suggesting the playoffs are going to change anytime soon? Perhaps...but we will all be worm food by then. Once this machine was set up it is tough to change it. 

Ask that question to the PAC 12 and B1G. I think that when they completely abandoned TWO of the P5 conferences the door for change was opened.

So, to answer your question, yes, I do.

I like bowl games for the odd matchups.  ND vs LSU was cool for example.

You mean people aren't jacked for the SEC Championship?

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."

    Terry Lucas, 09/26/22
