The American Athletic Conference doesn’t have a true pecking order. The bowl matchups are based on best possible games and geography.
– Jared Birmingham Bowl vs. SEC
– Bad Boy Mowers Gasparillia Bowl vs. Conference USA
– Hawaii Bowl vs. BYU or Mountain West
– Military Bowl presented by Northrup Grumman vs. ACC
– Cheribundi Tart Cherry Bowl vs. Conference USA
– AutoNation Cure Bowl vs. Sun Belt
– Frisco Bowl vs. At-Large
The American Athletic has secondary partnerships with the AutoZone Liberty and Walk-On’s Independence, to fill if the main affiliations can’t fill their slots.

It doesn't take as many times as I've been there to understand that this is the little stepbrother Facility that hasn't had any upgrade since John F. Kennedy.
Of all of the facilities I have attended in the last 20 years this is the least overwhelming.
It needs to be imploded.

A new 50,000 seat stadium is under construction in downtown B-ham. The old gray lady’s days are numbered.
In addition it would ruin people's spirits to get waxed by a P5 team we're not ready for this year.

It will ruin people’s spirits if 10-2 SMU goes to Frisco.
