An obviously very early look at The American standings:
1. UCF (3-0)
2. SMU (2-1)
2. USF (2-1)
2. Cincinnati (2-1)
2. Memphis (2-1)
2. UConn (2-1)
7. Tulane (2-2)
8. Temple (1-2)
8. Houston (1-2)
10. Tulsa (0-3)
10. ECU (0-3)
It looks like it will be imperative for SMU to stay within a game of UCF until the rematch in Orlando. There isn't going to be any room for an off night in conference play for anybody near the top.
It also looks like the new teams aren't quite up to the level of play in the conference yet.
But, there is still a long way to go.
SMU at Memphis - Sunday at 1pm.
Go Mustangs!
