Good lord Memphis..UC is in rebuild mode and your loaded roster is looking up at them in the NET.

Tulsa. South Florida. Tulane. Temple.

Well done.

AAC newcomers

UAB - 35
North Texas - 104
Rice - 199
Charlotte - 201
FAU - 226
UTSA - 313

Yikes.

No excuses for USF. We are really really bad and if any AAC school loses to us you have no one to blame but yourselves

Wow those numbers are rough

UAB is almost back to where we belong.

UNT needs to keep improving. They can be a solid program.

Charlotte is down but should be back up to just below UAB soon.

The Rice, FAU and especially UTSA needs to make major investments in basketball. WE cannot have any sub 300 teams period. 200s are bad enough.

Losing Battle really hurts, but I think we're closer to 100 than 200.

Tulsa's net is surprisingly bad for what they've done this year

the rhode island win is respectable...
@boise & utah losses shouldn't be a big deal.. @oral Roberts is a bad loss but not that bad .. the air force loss is really bad, but how bad they will be hasnt revealed itself yet, they are 7-1..all the losses were close

tulsa has loyola marymount tomorrow, and then siu, colorado state & unt before conference play (alcorn too but that's an auto win)..all games but csu at home ..tulsa is in a position to really destroy the league right now.. they have to SWEEP those games to probably get back top 150...colorado state is the only survivable loss but for Tulsa its not about maintaining position but rising, and need a colorado state win to rise

outside of colorado state; unt, siu and loyola marymount are all capable of beating tulsa, while playing at tulsa could do some net killing...

this is why its so bad, ive seen enough of tulsa to know they're capable of upsetting a couple of top aac teams, especially since they run zone and half the league cant shoot...if tulsa doesn't come into the conference with a great net they are going to throw some q4 losses on some teams that cant take it... and right now that is every team but houston

Would the AAC be considered Mid-Major?

Anyone under 99 should get a pad in the back and a seat at the big boy table... Anyone between 100 - 199 should be slap around a little... Anyone over 200 shouldn’t wear the AAC patch.

Expect us to continue to struggle. Might even drop that Akron game and then figure out.a way to win against CSU. Rough time being a Tulsa fan to huge issues in revenue sports and our administration doesn't give a damn.

Good Lord, Temples athletics suck. Our new AD has a chit ton of work to do.

There should be an annual AAC award for the school with the worst performing combined revenue sport programs. The leading candidates could get their mail sent to them on that short list.

Already is in it’s current format.

i wouldn't go that far.. the current aac is not a mid major..

Pesik has the right of it, Tulsa’s talent is way better than that net would indicate and if they can put things together they could easily have multiple upsets during conference play. We will struggle with tall teams and great 3-point shooting teams but we should be competitive with everyone else. I personally think our D is better when we play man. BTW, we might be the worst rebounding team in America right now.
