Disagree. The Big 12 got through non-conference with good results and good RPI, and then it becomes incestuous as far as the rankings go. Good for them for getting to that point, but the top 6-7 in The American and the Big 12 are pretty even.

UT and Okie lit are kind of sucky - they are very strong through 5 and we are very strong through 4.

well, that's the case for all conferences. why did their teams perform better than AAC teams non-conference? they have 5 teams out of 10 ranked in the top 25 for a reason. The fact that Tulsa is 2nd place in the AAC with a bad non-conference is a testament to how bad the AAC is

If we win tomorrow, I think it is just us and Cincy.

I still think Temple is in because of their Kansas win.

Might get in but i doubt. they'll prolly look at the kansas game as an outlier. What are their other good wins... Cincy at home? They got wrecked in Cincy by 30

The AAC is better than people give it credit for. That said we are a 3 bid league or 4 if uconn wins tomorow. Even if ucon wins I could see the comittee screwing temple and Tulsa like they did last year with us. We need an AAC person on the committee ASAP to correct this. It won't get fixed until we have a comittee spot and the usf UCF and houstons can schedule and compete against better Non conference competition.

Even though the comittee got burned last year on disrespecting the AAC I doubt they will remember that or care and give us the respect we deserve. AAC is getting better though lots of young talent, good coaches, and great TV exposure.

With Wyoming winning, that means that the MWC gets two bids, which knocks a mid major bubble team out.
