I don't think it is an arms wrapping around issue, some just don't think they should have to accept where we are as a program currently and lower their expectations

To me, accepting where we are as a program currently is wrapping arms around the issue, so we'll just have to agree to disagree .....

No one has to lower their expectations. They just have to live with disappointment like the past few years.

would love to be mad but only head scratcher is how they ranked us ahead of anyone.

It's because of our enormous prestige.

Uh, Raymond James, because of all the lease revenue lost.

Everybody would take that ...... some apparently still have a problem wrapping their arms around where we currently are as a football program and can't handle the fact that finishing mid AAC this year would actually be a pretty good accomplishment, all things considered.

Golesh has an easier conference this year than previous years to compete in. I know current state of this program and it's not pretty but also recognize that you can't compare this year's conference foes with last year's conference foes. It's a weaker conference. Middle of the pack this year isn't really doing much better than last year except some cosmetic look on a piece of paper with our name in the middle instead of at the end. I'm not expecting much but I won't be counting it as a successful year either finishing mid conference. To each their own...

Look we only beat temple is 3 seasons. We have been losing to teams we used to consider an automatic win ECU, Tulsa, and Temple.  There were some not good programs still in the conference but the top 3 left and were replaced with some terrible teams (Rice, North Texas, Charlotte), some  decent to mediocre teams with new coaches that could bring them up or down (FAU with Herman, UAB new coach though), and one program that could finished ranked (UTSA). We have a completely unknown coach in Golesh. We have to wait and see how far he take USF Footoball.

I miss the good ol' days when a delusional Phil Steele cited the Bulls as a potential "dark horse" for the national championship.  Now we'll exceed prognosticators' expectations if we find our way out of the AAC basement.
