Here's the method behind such madness...

https://blogs.emory.edu/sportsmarketing/2013/07/23/ranking-the-best-fan-bases-in-college-football/

 

and here's the results...

 

 

https://blogs.emory.edu/sportsmarketing/2013/07/29/the-american-athletic-conference-surprising-results-that-portend-a-bright-future/

 

The American Athletic Conference (AAC) is the product of conference realignment, and a fascinating story.  The former Big East schools are desperately trying to construct a league that can keep the AAC in discussion of the Power 6 conferences rather than fading back into the pack.  To some degree, our analyses suggest that the AAC has made a few good moves.  We already rank the AAC as the number five conference, and there is reason to believe that the AAC has landed several programs with bright futures.

 

Food for thought...  :thumbsup:

It does mean something. Fan buying power which ESPN takes notice of. I agree about SMU. They could take off marketing wise once they get their team going like it was before the NCAA kill order. My MD is an SMU grad. Excellent school.

Very interesting.

 

Since UL and Futgers were way down the list, I wonder if we'll still beat the ACC next year?
