RE: G5 Golden Ticket Status
Undefeated AAC champ v undefeated SDSU would be close bit I think the AAC would likely get it due to conference strength. 1 loss AAC though I think would miss out in favor of undefeated SDSU

There is a high probability that the AAC championship game is gonna be between 2 top 25 teams while SDSU is gonna have a cupcake. That's gonna be a tough one for the committee to ignore.

If SDSU can run the gauntlet and the AAC champ has a loss I think it will go to SDSU. They will have two wins against decent to solid PAC12 schools and 1 maybe 2 wins against Boise plus a road win at Air Force. They will be hard to ignore

plus playing NIU this week that beat Nebraska @ Nebraska
This year's Nebraska is a joke. It's a team that would probably easily lose to just about anyone this year. Im also talking about an undefeated AAC champ that would have gone through a much harder conference schedule.

and nobody out there views the AAC as dramatically tougher than the MWC only AAC homers and their P6 BS believe that nonsense

they are not going to ignore the dramatically better OOC schedule of SDSU because "oh wow the AAC"

and not to mention that it will hurt the AAC because several of their teams have lost the opportunity to have an OOC win against anyone

there is no guarantee that dem coogs doh would beat UTSA this year especially since a much worse UTSA has beaten them in the past

that UTSA game and the UCF GaTech game were chances for AAC teams to have some wins over decent teams

and while NU is terrible so is UCLA and that is the only decent win Memphis might have this year and they are losing the chance to have one more win against GSU even if it is a win over a terrible team

not to mention there are plenty of chances for anyone in the division with Memphis to beat them and very little chance any team in that division is ranked for the CCG especially with some of those teams cancelling games

so that means the best chance is for USF to win it all and their schedule sucks compared to SDSU if they finish with the same record

no one is going to thing that the CCG for the AAC will be a major boost for the AAC over SDSU if their records are the same at the end of the year...SDSU still has the same or better overall schedule and they will have proved a great deal more in the OOC

it was proven last year that "strength of conference" has little relevance for G5 conferences making the NY6 bowl

Umm..... what are you talking about? Going into conference championship games, a two loss AAC team was literally right behind an undefeated MAC team. I think that speaks volumes of the inaccuracy of your statement.

they were not "right behind them" they were behind a 3 loss Stanford team which shows what people thought about the "strength" of the AAC

and that had little to do with the conference it was because WMU played no one in the OOC

SDSU has played a much better OOC this year than WMU played last year

WMU was not even ranked until week 5 last year while SDSU has moved to right behind USF starting in week 3 based solely on their OOC and any slip up by USF and they are going to be out of the rankings and they will most likely not move back into them

and no one that is not currently ranked in the AAC is going to then move ahead of SDSU unless SDSU loses

in other words SDSU and their OOC has already put them in the position to take the P6 helmet stickers as long as they win out and USF has even one stumble and no other AAC team will move ahead of them if USF stumbles especially based on the "strength" of the AAC Vs the MWC

You cant selectively use the PAC as an example when trying to make your point. Simply the AAC conference schedule was in fact factored in to the CFP ranking when looking at those ranking. It took WMU to be undefeated to be a few slots ahead of a two loss Navy. That simple. You cant bring in the PAC to make your point.......but actually it just made my point stronger.

RE: G5 Golden Ticket Status
SOS will be a key factor. USF had a very weak SOS. I don't think even the USF fans can debate that. That was always going to be their Achilles heel. Arguements can be made for both sides. I don't think the polls are helping one way or the other. I think it will be who can go undefeated gets in. Week 8 when the poll comes out will probably signal the CFP's thinking. For the signal loss team, I think the key stat wlll be how many teams will have played OOC winning teams and won against them. To me the two teams this looks the best for is SDSU and Memphis. I am not sure if MD is good or bad. I think Ill will have a losing record. I do think the money is on MWC or AAC getting their second Golden ticket.

It also is gonna be important how you win your games. Slugfests against cupcakes are not gonna do you any favors.
Lead to another question. Let's say there are multiple undefeated G5 teams........with many 3 and 4 loss P5 teams. Is this the year two G5s get taken?

Possibly. If both SDSU and AAC champ are undefeated and looking solid I could see them both getting in, particularly this year where there are no conferecne requirements for any bowl but Orange

Don't discount this. If there is ever a year to get 2 in this is it. There are FIVE at large spots this year. TCU and Boise both got in under the old BCS.

Well....... betting a shiny dollar that if this happens, AAC vs MWC...... there would be no way they separate us, even though they should for the sake of the traveling fan bases.

RE: G5 Golden Ticket Status
the AAC this year does not have the out of conference schedule that they had last year

dem coogs doh are not going to beat OU and Louisville and they already lost to Texas Tech and they gave up a chance for what looks to be a decent OOC win against UTSA......the win over a terrible AU means nothing

the Memphis win over UCLA is nowhere close to any of the AAC OOC wins last year because UCLA sucks and is only going to get worse and Memphis will simply have one less win no matter what because of one less game played

UCF gave up a chance to beat GaTech in favor of a game with Austin Peay

Navy has no potential big wins on their schedule in conference or out of conference this year because ND sucks

last year the AAC had big OOC wins early in the season this year they have none of that and they have no chance for that late in the season and they are going to be minus just plain "wins" against warm bodies

the "strength" of the AAC last year was based on performance in the OOC it was not based on similar thoughts to the SEC SEC SEC where it is "well sure that team was 4-3, but that is an SEC SEC SEC 4-3"

the AAC this year does not have that OOC schedule to get teams in position and no one with a brain is pretending that the AAC itself is dramatically tougher than the MWC

AAC fans have it in their head that they are the SEC SEC SEC of the G5 (or some laughable P6 crap) where people automatically look at their in conference games as so much tougher than any other G5 conference.....but the reality is every year the G5 teams are reset back to all being "G5" and the team with the best overall record especially in OOC games is going to get the P6 stickers

there is not going to be a situation where the AAC teams jump over others based on "well they won the AAC doh" especially when the team from some other G5 had a better OOC record and even more so when no one sees a dramatic difference between the MWC and AAC

as it stands now the OOC wins for SDSU have a much greater chance of looking better Vs any AAC team

the Stanford win and even the ASU win (with their win over Oregon) have a chance to look much better than any OOC win for any AAC team......there is little chance that Illinois or Maryland is going to catch fire in the Big 10 and the Ga Tech and UTSA games are gone

NIU beat what is probably a terrible Nebraska team, but NIU can still be a very good team overall

Navy has a chance to beat Air Force, but Air Force already lost to SDSU

last year the AAC teams moved up because their OOC wins stayed good wins throughout the year....OU got better, LU had big wins, but this year there is little chance of that happening

the AAC OOC schedule is weak, there are more losses already and the chance for the wins to improve is very small and of course there are just going to be fewer wins in general because of fewer games

while SDSU is in the position where their OOC wins have a much higher chance to improve over the life of the season

the conference games overall just based on some wished or made up AAC homer "P6" or "better than the MWC in general" is non existent

no one is going to thing that the CCG for the AAC will be a major boost for the AAC over SDSU if their records are the same at the end of the year...SDSU still has the same or better overall schedule and they will have proved a great deal more in the OOC

it was proven last year that "strength of conference" has little relevance for G5 conferences making the NY6 bowl

As usual, Todd uses opinion points that actually refute one another--undermining his own argument. 'Nuff said. As long as USF is significantly ahead of SDSU in the polls---USF has the inside track. Not to mention SDSU didnt exactly turn heads barely eking out a win over an average at best Air Force team.

For the length of your novels that you write with each post, I would hope you take more than half a second with your research. Austin Peay was added to the schedule after the season started during their bye week to make up an extra game to replace the other FCS that was cancelled, Maine. Maine was canceled to make room for a rescheduled conference game with Memphis. GT was cancelled and there is no replacement for it. Even if it was played, I am fairly confident that UCF would have been on top as well. We shall see what the committee thinks of natural disasters..... but judging by the time you put into novels in spite of your lack of simple research, don't think your opinion holds much water to anything. We shall see where we stand week 10........that's all that matters.

just because a conference has parity does not mean it is a tough conference relative to other conferences no one is going to reward a conference filled with 7-5 teams because they all beat up on each other especially with plenty of OOC losses or OOC wins that are not that great

but I am sure that logic escapes you

the MWC and the AAC both have one ranked team each and the team in the MWC has the better OOC wins with a much greater chance that those OOC wins look better as the season progresses and that will matter a great deal more than some pretend P6 or some pretend difference in overall conference straighten the AAC fans think they have

an hey Attendance: 36,383......great job on that #htowntakeover!

10% below capacity for your big revenge on the team that keeps you from the P5 game

Don't discount this. If there is ever a year to get 2 in this is it. There are FIVE at large spots this year. TCU and Boise both got in under the old BCS.

Again, no two G5s will get in unless both are in the top 10. Again, using the current AP Poll this team as an example

1 Alabama(52) CFP
2 Clemson(8) CFP
3 Oklahoma(1) CFP
4 Penn State CFP
5 USC 4-0 Fiesta 2
6 Washington Cotton 1
7 Georgia 4-0 Orange VS ACC team
8 Michigan 4-0 Fiesta 2
9 TCU 4-0 1028 Cotton 2
10 Wisconsin 3-0 1023 1 Peach vs G5

Due to the tie-ins, even with the year with the most at-larges, it is still near impossible for two G5s to get in. In addition, if they do another OSU non champion, that eats away another at large. Say a 12-0 Alabama is upset in the SEC title game, they will still be selected. Hell, OSU didn't even make it to the title game last year and got in.

This year's Nebraska is a joke. It's a team that would probably easily lose to just about anyone this year. Im also talking about an undefeated AAC champ that would have gone through a much harder conference schedule.

and nobody out there views the AAC as dramatically tougher than the MWC only AAC homers and their P6 BS believe that nonsense

they are not going to ignore the dramatically better OOC schedule of SDSU because "oh wow the AAC"

and not to mention that it will hurt the AAC because several of their teams have lost the opportunity to have an OOC win against anyone

there is no guarantee that dem coogs doh would beat UTSA this year especially since a much worse UTSA has beaten them in the past

that UTSA game and the UCF GaTech game were chances for AAC teams to have some wins over decent teams

and while NU is terrible so is UCLA and that is the only decent win Memphis might have this year and they are losing the chance to have one more win against GSU even if it is a win over a terrible team

not to mention there are plenty of chances for anyone in the division with Memphis to beat them and very little chance any team in that division is ranked for the CCG especially with some of those teams cancelling games

so that means the best chance is for USF to win it all and their schedule sucks compared to SDSU if they finish with the same record

no one is going to thing that the CCG for the AAC will be a major boost for the AAC over SDSU if their records are the same at the end of the year...SDSU still has the same or better overall schedule and they will have proved a great deal more in the OOC

it was proven last year that "strength of conference" has little relevance for G5 conferences making the NY6 bowl

As usual, Todd uses opinion points that actually refute one another--undermining his own argument. 'Nuff said. As long as USF is significantly ahead of SDSU in the polls---USF has the inside track. Not to mention SDSU didnt exactly turn heads barely eking out a win over an average at best Air Force team.

just because a conference has parity does not mean it is a tough conference relative to other conferences no one is going to reward a conference filled with 7-5 teams because they all beat up on each other especially with plenty of OOC losses or OOC wins that are not that great

but I am sure that logic escapes you

the MWC and the AAC both have one ranked team each and the team in the MWC has the better OOC wins with a much greater chance that those OOC wins look better as the season progresses and that will matter a great deal more than some pretend P6 or some pretend difference in overall conference straighten the AAC fans think they have

an hey Attendance: 36,383......great job on that #htowntakeover!

10% below capacity for your big revenge on the team that keeps you from the P5 game

No need to attack UH because your logic is flawed. Attendance in a town still cleaning up from Harvey has nothing to do with your faulty logic. Maybe shorter posts will help prevent you from directly contradicting what you say earlier. Just trying to be helpful. 02-13-banana

As for attendance, 36K+ was not too bad for an 11AM start on a hot humid September day. Honestly, empty seats abound at most every stadium forced to fill those early TV slots. In this area of the country, we'd do well to never have a daytime home kickoff until October. They are uncomfortable as hell.
