This is great news. I think #21 Cincinnati and #22 Virginia will both lose this week, which will put us in the top 25 going into bowl season.

Don't get the love for the MWC this year. They must really not want the AAC in the NY6. Air Force lost to common opponent by more than we did, Navy, but did beat Colorado. For us to get into Top 25, we need App State to lose SBC Champ game, I think. Later, if we win Bowl game we might sneak in.

I don't either but I think it's the committee's way of diversifying the "G5" so that our message of P6 can't resonate. If they kicked out Boise St. and/or App St. then you could possibly have 2 AAC teams added back in either SMU, UCF or Navy. That would make the cartel very upset. It probably got them giddy when we lost to Navy.

Notice the one guy that consistently ranked us the lowest is an Idaho ho. Helping Boise State.

Brett is also a lover of the MWC. As others have said, I think a few losses will occur and we will creep in to 24/25.
