Cincinnati is my pick to win the conference. The Bearcats offense was one of the better units in the nation a year ago. With Gunner Kiel, leading rusher Mike Boone and the entire receiving corps back, the offense should be dynamic. There were huge flashes of what Kiel was capable of a year ago. The caveat obviously has to be Kiel’s health. We saw him knocked out of a few games...


Kevin Causey (@CFBZ):
Last year there was a three way tie at the end of the year when three teams finished 7-1 in the conference. With the inaugural AAC Championship Game being held on December 5th that will change this year. So…when we think about this answer it’s not just about who will have the best team throughout the course of the season. It’s also about the team who will have the most players standing at the end of the year (the best quality depth) and it’s about which team will peak at the right time although they still have to be good enough throughout the year to win their division...Cincinnati

Terry Johnson (@SectionTPJ):
While Scott and Kevin make an excellent case for Cincinnati, I’m picking Houston to win the AAC this season. Make no mistake about it: the Cougars were closer to winning the league last year than their 5-3 conference record would indicate. UH defeated eventual co-champion Memphis, while narrowly losing to UCF (5 points) and Cincinnati (7 points). With a couple of breaks – or one fewer turnover – in each of those contests, the Cougs would have won the the conference title...

...I would also add, it's about who plays the toughest teams at home.

It's the off season...and it's not another realignment thread... Who's going to be in the AAC Championship? Who is going to win the AAC? [b]
