Next week if all these teams win along with Tulane, we could have a historic 4 AP AAC teams assuming others may fall in the Top 25 could make that happen. It'll be interesting to scout the Temple v Memphis game. Another big challenge even at home and on the road to Memphis. Exciting times but this team has to play 4 Quarters. Fortunately, Tulsa can be tied with just 1Q.

Highest ranking looks like #16 for us. Given how we played at home against a team not respected nationally down to 3OT, I get the rationale for moving us to #25 but completely out is a stretch. Every team has a bad game but we responded back like a top 25 team would.

Got to love the Lubbock sportswiter Don Williams leaving SMU out of the poll.

Yet he includes 3-2 Iowa State , who's best W is, yep, TCU. Other wins include a 3OT win over Northern Iowa and a W vs UL Monroe.

Time for some shout-outs on Twitter? @AJ_DonWilliams

Looks like the Texas Tech/Lubbock guy did NOT vote for SMU, Memphis or Cincinnati! P5 bias on display.
