Can any AAC team top that?

IF App St beats SC and wins out they would have the best wins of any G5. They probably wouldn't jump Boise (maybe should though) but should be ahead of SMU and certainly any one loss AAC team.

This is a ludicrous statement.
South Carolina currently #38 (and would drop with a loss to App) and UNC #44 (all rankings in this post Massey Composite)

SMU's better wins would be:
#16 Cincinnati (conference championship game)
#29 Memphis
#32 Tulane
#33 Navy
#40 TCU
#48 Temple

One-loss Cincy could have:
#20 SMU (conference championship game)
#28 UCF
#29 Memphis
#48 Temple

One-loss Memphis would have:
#16 Cincinnati
#20 SMU
#32 Tulane
#33 Navy

And maybe a re-match with #48 Temple or add #28 UCF in ccg

One-loss Navy would have:
#16 Cincy (ccg) or UCF or Temple
#20 SMU
#32 Tulane
#42 Air Force....
oh, and #11 Notre Dame

In fact, IF App beats South Carolina and wins out...there is almost no way that the AAC champ WON'T have better wins than App's wins.

You have accounted for SC dropping with a loss, but don't assume all those AAC schools drop upon losing multiple conference games.

Long season ahead, too early to guess at this stage. I'd take the field over the top three because, well it's college football.
