Here's the problem with AAC bowl games in general. We're the coaching launchpad to the P5. Our best players are high draft picks and opt out of the meaningless toilet bowl exhibition games.

Take Wake Forest for instance. They're never going to compete for a conference championship. Yesterday was their only chance for getting some worthless trophy.

Perhaps the best AAC program over the last 5-8 years, Houston, just got trounced by the largest margin of victory in history by a team which five years ago was trying to end more than a decade of futility, and still the AAC brain trust fails to recognize that college football teams and conferences are very consistently inconsistent, with certain teams or conferences being the best for a few years, and then very average the next few years.

What everyone should grasp quite firmly by now, however, is that it is the big schools, particularly those with the long-standing historical programs, and the conference schools who ride the coattails of those programs, literally hold the purse-strings, and all of the political power, with the outside influence, all of which dictate what the relative position of every other school in the NCAA will be, and exactly what they will receive financially and otherwise.

What will never happen is those power schools, and the power people who drive college sports, deciding to share any real power, or the goose that is laying the golden eggs. One would have to be very simple-minded to conclude, or even dream, otherwise. Thus, those who pretend like this is somehow a reality are doing little more than manifesting a pathetic simple mindedness.

But I digress.....

UCF is the best AAC team since inception. 4 (1 was a split) AAC football conference championships. No one else has more than one.

100% agree here ^^^

And this is why we may always have bad winning bowl results... Unless of course is the NY6 bowl were coaches, players delay their announcement plans so to increase their stock even more $$$.

Plus a couple of Bowl records were set too.

This is THE WORST CUSA has ever been in fb, period.

Hands down. We are a garbage conference. Our play on the field is proof. No way around it. We've been surpassed by all other G5 conferences.


MWC

MWC should stop scheduling AAC teams.

IMO, MWC teams should NEVER schedule AAC teams in FB or MBB OOC. Never. Those matchups should only happen in post-season play, if at all.

MWC really needs to try and get WCC teams on the schedule, and some upper-echelon WAC teams.

This is going to be a tough year for the conference. Going into TV negotiations, these kinds of losses hurt worse.

The MWC is at a point now that they need to look within.

A more regional approach is justified

Coogs looked great today vs Army.
70-14.

I appreciate the original sentiment and message, and no one hates the P5 gluttonous grab of power and money more than me, but your bowl performance year in and year out should at least provide some perspective into the silliness of it all. What is even more comical though is that some here actually think that the P5 presidents, who currently have all of the power and control of all of the money, would ever see any reason to simply invite the AAC into their penthouse.

I'm not suggesting that most folks are watching and laughing though. But that's because it would be impolite.

Only if the money is there and the western “division” is at least 6 for football to cut down on travel for all sports.
