AAC has 5 teams in the AP top 25

The media has not been giving the AAC respect it deserves. They seem to always be putting the PAC 12 or SEC ahead of us. But they can't ignore us now,

Every game I've watched this week they've mentioned the AAC having five teams ranked

All the conversation I have seen put Big 10 as #1 with Pac 12 as #2. That was a couple of weeks ago so I hope they have changed their minds about which is the most powerful.

Pac-12 is probably the deepest conference in the country. Aside from Arizona, they have no powerhouse teams, but they could send a ton of teams to the NCAA tournament and the rest to the NIT.

This is a silly thread. AAC is getting a ton of attention. What a lot of people are focusing on right now are conferences with top teams and teams that could likely win a NC. As such, a conference like the SEC is getting a lot of attention because of Florida. Some just view the AAC as not having any power teams (despite Cincy's ranking). They might be right, but who cares.
