Georgia, LSU, Auburn, Baylor, Penn State have been AAC NY6 opponents

And we have played similar opponents as those, for sure.

But playing end of season against those teams when they're known to have had a top season - it just carries a very different level of attention. It's the difference between 1.5M viewers and 8.5M viewers.

It would be such a laughably bad decision to move back to a G5 conference.

You are totally correct.

Today, that’s true. If a g5 champ gets an autobid to an expanded playoff,

I get your point, but remember that after 1 loss it's a crap bowl.

Quick - without looking it up, what bowl did Memphis play in this year? Did they win or lose?

5/15/21 7:03pm

Quick!!! The point is that the CC will be in a NY6 bowl, 90%. 10% BSU factor.

And?

And ask an ACC fan what bowl game #11 BYU went to last year

BYU Fan

Is an ACC fan like a Pac12 fan? Because all of the Pac12 stickers I've seen

Unlike now? Uh, NO.

Snipe

Nobody cares about bowls anymore outside of the playoff. And we saw last season

No you don't care, I care and all the CBers crying that BYU didn't get a NY6

I care about BYU playing better schedules and not mortgaging their future

Hopefully (and it certainly seems to be the case), the AD sees things differentl

If money is what we are playing for, maybe. I'm guessing UCF is doing okay :).

I hate the idea that BYUs goal in football is money & not winning or relevance

Watch UCF and Cincy get the P5 invite while BYU doesn't. This is the same thing

CheeseburgerEddie

Probably likely! Cincy and UCF are the sexy teams now. UCF has amazing

Who do you think we could play in NY6 bowl, Texas? Maybe USC? Nebraska?

Jacksonian76

5/15/21 10:49pm

Or maybe someone like Virginia. Or Baylor. Or Michigan St.

There is a big difference in playing Neb, Tex, USC, Utah during the season

Did you just put Utah on the same level as Nebreaska, USC, and Texas?

Jacksonian76

5/23/21 10:07pm

So wrong. In which bowl game did the MWC champ from last season play?

Read better! I said the AAC champ. The AAC is borderline P5 the MWC is a Joke.

You can have 3 or 4 P5 games in the AAC and play Cincy, Memphis, UCF, Navy, SMU,

delete_king

5/15/21 8:07pm

You cannot. No G5 team has ever played more than 3 P5 teams in a season. And 3 P5 games have only happened a few times

5/15/21 8:12pm

Also, 6-8 P5s should be the goal

LiveCoug

5/15/21 8:13pm

And it took us a while to get there but the independence schedules are there now and on a clear upward trajectory. They

5/15/21 8:14pm

My point is that you can play 12 P5 teams every year. It will get you nothing.

delete_king

5/15/21 8:22pm

The only thing that would change in the AAC is less money, less exposure, and fewer big games every year. Just a flat

5/15/21 8:28pm

Not sure it's an upward trajectory so much as an ebb/flow; 2022-2024 we play 3-5

krindorr

5/15/21 8:29pm

Yup. got some bad years coming. Need to improve

LiveCoug

5/15/21 8:31pm

5 P5 games is great. 4 is more than any G5 team has ever played. We’ll see what happens to the schedules after 2023

5/15/21 8:33pm

4 P5 games and games like Utah St, Dixie, and Idaho st is a weaker SOS than most

delete_king

5/15/21 9:26pm

Again, you do realize that we beat 3 of the better AAC teams last year alone, right? Including your beloved UCF.

5/15/21 9:29pm

We did and that is great. It took a freak year with once in 20 year QB.

delete_king

5/15/21 9:44pm

Yup we were ranked behind their champion who ducked the opportunity to play us.

It's up the to the AD, right? We are suppose to have the super scheduler AD.

delete_king

5/15/21 8:13pm

No. It’s up to the other teams’ ADs and their open dates. It’s just not feasible for a G5 team to a) create that much

5/15/21 8:16pm

You're right, great exhibition schedule. At best 7/8 wins, no ranking, bad bowl.

delete_king

5/15/21 8:29pm

A bowl game is literally an exhibition game. The bowl game does not matter.

That is a good denial statement. The only fans in America that would say, NY6

5/15/21 8:47pm

Most fans think they don’t matter. They’re exhibition games by their very definition
