Definitely hurts the P6 brand they have been pushing. It was also a bad year for the SEC, and shows that they need to schedule tougher ooc games instead of playing teams central oklahoma community college for the blind.

We didn't win our crappy conference, but at least we are not 0-12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a bummer having your bowl game cancelled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bottom of the sec stunk it up (vandy,usce) but the other loses were close (miss St held Iowa to -5 rushing and somehow lost, and uf and tamu demolished opponents. Obviously bama got rolled last night too. Honestly I would put bama and Clemson in their own stratosphere. Then I still think it's the status quo. SEC, B16, ACC, B12, P12 It seems like every year this time we have a, AAC didn't do itself favors thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a G5 conference, this is your opportunity to show you belong on the big stage, which is the argument that UCF and the AAC has been making the last two seasons. In the AAC's case, if you think you belong with the P5 conferences (P6 initiative), then your mediocre teams should beat the other G5 conferences' mediocre/good teams (USF lost to CUSA Marshall, Houston lost to independent Army) and the best teams in your conference should be able to beat the better teams in the P5 conferences (UCF lost to SEC LSU, Temple lost to ACC duke, Memphis lost to ACC Wake Forest). For reference, last year the AAC went 3-1 against P5 opponents (USF beat Texas Tech, UCF beat Auburn, and Navy beat Virginia) and 2-1 against G5 opponents. Those kind of results are what you would expect from a G5 team that is equal to the P5 conferences. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
