Flagship?class of the conference? Does that include o-12, because I don't recall Memphis ever doing that in the AAC. We've been probably the most consistently "good football program " in this conference 07-coffee3

yeah it's too early for that flagship stuff. you need to win 60% of your conference's championships and appear in a new years bowl 40% of the time for that.

RE: Rank the AAC
1. UCF (clear favorite)

2a. Memphis (should be a fun AAC championship)
2b. USF (has chance in AAC East, the UCF/USF game should be a LOT of fun)

4a. Navy (0-3 against top 25, but competitive against all of Memphis, UCF, ND)
4b. Houston (good win against USF)

6. SMU (can score on anyone)

7. Temple (staying relevant first year with new coach, to their credit)
8. Tulane (hanging tough, best the Wave have been in a while)

9. ECU
10. UConn
11. Cincy
12. Tulsa

I think in our conference's short history, we've had some pretty solid programs, but none that is head and shoulders above the rest.

For best overall since the AAC came into being, I think UCF, Houston, Memphis, Navy, and Temple all have a place in the discussion.

It's been a fairly competitive conference.

Simple really, “if” UCF wins the next two football games (in which they will be favored) they will be conference champions 3 out of 5 years (60%) of the time, including two undefeated conference runs. So yeah.........flagship.

If 10-0 is relevant, then so the hell is 0-12. Just sayin'...

For best overall since the AAC came into being, I think UCF, Houston, Memphis, Navy, and Temple all have a place in the discussion.

It's been a fairly competitive conference.

2015-2017 (current membership, division structure, and CCG)

USF .826 in conf; .777 overall; division finish 2, T1, 1/2
Navy .782; .702; T1, 1, 2/3
Temple .720; .641; 1, T1, 3
Houston .708; .756; T1, T3, 2/3
Memphis .695; .722; 3, T3, 1
UCF .478; .457; 6, 3, 1/2

That's "most consistently good" but I suppose you could add in P5 record, or quality wins, or you could go to average Composite rankings.
For "flagship" you almost have to talk championships and NY6 bowls (so no Navy in that conversation yet), but you can also talk end-of-year rankings, #weeks in the AP/Coaches polls, and CFP Rankings both post-CCG and # weeks.

My message of peace is that it speaks to the strength of the conference overall, top to bottom, that you have six different division winners/tied in the conversation and every one is worth national attention. #AmericanPow6r

I know you attempted to caveat this data set, but c'mon. Way to leave out 2013 and 2014 entirely. It served the purpose of erasing 21 UCF wins.

For "flagship" you almost have to talk championships and NY6 bowls (so no Navy in that conversation yet), but you can also talk end-of-year rankings, #weeks in the AP/Coaches polls, and CFP Rankings both post-CCG and # weeks.

My message of peace is that it speaks to the strength of the conference overall, top to bottom, that you have six different division winners/tied in the conversation and every one is worth national attention. #AmericanPow6r

I know you attempted to caveat this data set, but c'mon. Way to leave out 2013 and 2014 entirely. It served the purpose of erasing 21 UCF wins.

And a Memphis/UCF/UC co-title in 2014.

Up front with it - apples to apples with the Conf. as it stands today.

You want to look at both overall winning percentage and in conf winning percentage for most consistently good 2013-2017...
#1 Navy .683 .782
#2 Houston .698 .675
#3 UCF .607 .667
#4 Memphis .639 .615
#5 USF .567 .615

(with Houston nosing ahead on only overall winning percentage 44-19 to 43-20)

Edited to add - this is follow up to "most consistently good" conversation started in posts 21,23,26-27, not intended to slight UCF's potential to win a third championship.

For best overall since the AAC came into being, I think UCF, Houston, Memphis, Navy, and Temple all have a place in the discussion.

It's been a fairly competitive conference.

2015-2017 (current membership, division structure, and CCG)

USF .826 in conf; .777 overall; division finish 2, T1, 1/2
Navy .782; .702; T1, 1, 2/3
Temple .720; .641; 1, T1, 3
Houston .708; .756; T1, T3, 2/3
Memphis .695; .722; 3, T3, 1
UCF .478; .457; 6, 3, 1/2

That's "most consistently good" but I suppose you could add in P5 record, or quality wins, or you could go to average Composite rankings.

Let me put it to you in terms even a three year old can understand. It’s all about the conference championship. UCF has more AAC championships without cherry picking data than anybody in this conference since its inception. This year Memphis has the opportunity to tie UCF, or UCF has the opportunity to further distance itself from the pack, or usf could win their first ever division and conference championship.

Simple really, “if” UCF wins the next two football games (in which they will be favored) they will be conference champions 3 out of 5 years (60%) of the time, including two undefeated conference runs. So yeah.........flagship.

They also went 0-12 a couple of years ago. So there's that.

And that's so relevant today.

If 10-0 is relevant, then so the hell is 0-12. Just sayin'...

I don't know what you are talking about. #shortmemory 07-coffee3

I bolded the parts where I am pretty obviously not denying your number of championships, nor claiming "flagship" and specifically addressing the "most consistently good" part. MY post quoted the four other posts which were going down that path (St H Gink, Tigersmoke, WhoseHouse, Sundanceuiuc).
Either you don't make a habit of reading the whole thread (posts 21,23, 26-27 are relevant) or you're VERY insecure...
