From that same article:

"Gary Stokan, the president and CEO of Peach Bowl, Inc., said there will be a proliferation of such agreements in the future between high-profile teams. Citing his organization’s games for the next three years, as well as a recently announced deal between Wisconsin and Notre Dame for games in 2020 at Green Bay’s Lambeau Field and 2021 at Chicago’s Soldier Field, Stokan said AD’s like the financial deals, coaches like boosting their schedule strength for the College Football Playoff selection committee, fans like games unlikely to be blowouts, players like the elite competition and TV executives like the prospect of high ratings.

“There’s not a downside,” he said. “Everyone wins in this type of format.”

But no AAC team brings cache like the ones mentioned above.

Except for a top 10 UCF at the moment. They are proclaiming themselves as national champs and many people are clamoring to see how they would do against Alabama or Georgia. if there was ever a time for such a match up it should be to kick off 2018. I'm sure the Peach Bowl and ESPN would love to get that game as well.

To a lesser extent, a ranked USF team against any of the Florida big three,  especially a ranked Miami, would draw a large TV audience in 2018.

BTW, those were not the only such games. If you didn't read the article, look at some of the others mentioned.

UCF-Auburn Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl Posts Highest-Rated Non-CFP Semifinal Peach Bowl of New Year’s Six Era The Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl between UCF and Auburn (12:30 p.m.) earned a 5.1 overnight, the highest-rated non-CFP Semifinal Peach Bowl in the New Year’s Six Era. The game was up 28% from the 2015 season game and 55% from the 2014 season game.  The 2016 Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl was a CFP Semifinal.

Would you be saying the same thing if we were 13-0 and had beaten Auburn in the Peach Bowl?

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
