We need to focus on winning games so we can move up.

How about we focus on going to a bowl game this season and then focus on winning the AAC and getting that playoff spot in 2024

We can't hold a mediocre AAC team's jock and people are all, "Definitely P5. Playing teams of our caliber is what we need."

At this moment in time, AAU ******* crushes anything a P5 could do for us. Our football team wouldn't/shouldn't be allowed to put a P5 team's jock in the laundry.

Right. No one in this thread has mentioned P5 opponents as a major reason for choosing P5 over AAU.

No one called them teams of our caliber.

Exactly! USF needs to start winning in the AAC before the fans start thinking of the so called power conferences. Fortunately, USF is in one of the best conferences outside of the so called power 5

That's a pretty mean thing to say 'bout our conference brethren.

How much will USF’s elite academic status help its Power Five pursuits?

---

Experts say academic profiles are a huge criterion when league presidents contemplate expansion.

Also posted this in the realignment thread. I anticipated some kind of article from Knight or Baker, but I expected it to say that AAU status won't help USF much in chasing a P5 invite. But here we are - an article expressing some hope for USF. Ain't that something?

Are you saying we may have to realign our goals?

Exactly why I would never want to be judged by a jury of my peers.
