Looking at AAC

The problem with your thinking is that you think winning an AAC championship means some thing, but it doesn't.

BengalCougar

6/25/19 8:24pm

Yes it does though it means we won the conference more meaningful than the

6/25/19 8:28pm

Sure it's nice to say you won, but in reality it doesn't mean anything. It would be like winning the AAA baseball...

BengalCougar

6/25/19 8:31pm

So that’s worse than what we have now?

tatertot9

6/25/19 8:32pm

Yes.

BengalCougar

So, what is BYU playing for? Also if you haven't noticed UCF is way better than

I never said we are better than them, that's not what this is about. Also the UCF example is a great example...

BengalCougar

6/25/19 10:16pm

UCF got the same respect BYU would get at 12-0. I have great respect for UCF and

6/25/19 10:40pm

I disagree, if we do what UCF did two years in a row we would get more recognition because of the schedule we play.

BengalCougar

6/25/19 10:47pm

Wrong the schedule we played both those years wouldn’t have gotten us in.

tatertot9

6/25/19 11:02pm

I never said anything about those specific years, I just said two years in a row. This year and next year for example..

I think you’re wrong about “Indy lovers”. Most don’t think we are better than all those teams.

So in the end we're a bad joke, a P5 whipping boy

Look, I don’t know what is best but . . .

Say the Big 12 decides to expand and takes Houston, UCF, and Cincinnati then

ManicBlue

6/25/19 8:29pm

this is, unfortunately, a realistic possibility

byujag

6/25/19 8:35pm

The Big12 isn’t interested in those teams

I'mBatman

6/25/19 8:57pm

I'd guess you're wrong on both points.

ManicBlue

6/25/19 10:17pm

We’ll see

Don’t believe everything you read

I'mBatman

6/26/19 4:28pm

and you should not believe everything you dream up

ManicBlue

6/26/19 8:53pm

We missed out on the BIG 12 because we thought they would break up.

Brigham

6/25/19 9:30pm

and you think these situations are even remotely the same?

ManicBlue

6/25/19 10:11pm

If the BIG12 takes those teams, which is possible, BYU would be out anyway.

blackshirts

6/25/19 10:19pm

I don't agree that your scenario is the future by any means. Also, I don't

ManicBlue

6/25/19 10:35pm

If they take those schools then not us, then we'll NEVER be in a P5

Because we're still better off as an Independent.

ManicBlue

6/26/19 3:53pm

Based on what measure? You can watch the games on ESPN?

Iki_Balam

6/26/19 4:54pm

Based on the FACT that BYU makes more money and gets more exposure than ANY

ManicBlue

6/26/19 8:55pm

So that's all that matters? Some ESPN love and we're set?

Iki_Balam

6/26/19 11:04pm

You're blaming all these things on Indy when that's not the problem.

ManicBlue

6/26/19 11:09pm

Yes it will.

I thought that said AOC, and I thought..WHY would anyone do that on purpose?

Cougarrr

6/25/19 8:56pm

I don’t know many people who are saying BYU is too good for the AAC. I think the issue is

The Dude Abides

6/25/19 9:09pm

Pretty sure many folks think BYU is too good for the AAC

TNT

6/25/19 9:10pm

Probably true. We’re definitely not too good for them. I just don’t think it’s the right move.

The Dude Abides

6/25/19 9:13pm

The current situation and AAC both have major drawbacks

TNT

6/25/19 9:17pm

This statement is right on. 🏆

blackshirts

6/25/19 10:20pm

Too good? I hope, but I’m not sure. But I love much of independence.

Cougarrr

6/25/19 10:21pm

This is a great argument. AAC is so.much better than Indy as an option
