Tulane and Tulsa: Tulane won 7, and Tulsa won 3 games last year. Last season Tulane won 14-7. This game is only interesting in that we play Tulsa this year, but there will be lots of chances to see them later in the season.
Temple vs. Vandy: Interesting Vandy is only a 12pt favorite, given Temple won a whopping 2 games last year (Army and Memphis). Vandy also destroyed Houston last year in a bowl, a team people are putting at the top of the AAC. If Temple actually pulled of a win it would be a great for the conferences getting a win against the "Strength Everywhere Conference"
, as long as people don't ask witch team it was against.
Friday:
BYU and UCONN: BYU is favored by 17 and it is hard to get excited for Connecticut football, as long as they are top tier in basketball I am ok with them being terrible football.
UTSA and Houston: Houston is favored by 11, but given they are a popular pick for winning the AAC, they need to decimate UTSA and help show real separation between AAC and CUSA.
Saturday:
Penn and UCF: This game is on at 8:30AM ET, and UCF is a 2 pt favorite. A win a gainst a Big (overated) 10 would great for the conference. Given the travel, who knows what will happen, worth having on in the background if you find yourself free/awake in the morning.
The rest of the AAC games are vs. FCS teams, lose and you are out of the conference!
