We'd want Navy to beat SMU to give them their second loss. As for the 2-loss AAC champion chosen over us at 12-1, that remains to be seen. To my knowledge the committee hasn't had that situation before. Also, it'd help if UNC gets bowl eligible which is very possible which would make that P5 win look better.Saint3333 wrote: ↑Tue Nov 19, 2019 1:08 pmI know we'd like Temple, USF, and Utah St. to beat Cincy, Memphis, and Boise, but do we want SMU or Navy to win this week?
Really need Cincy and Memphis to lose, but both Navy and SMU would be good stories for the Cotton Bowl. I'm starting to think a 2-loss AAC champion still gets in over a 12-1 App St.
If UL somehow gets ranked and we're able to beat them in the SBC Championship game, that might give us the edge over a 2-loss AAC team. We'd then have a top 25 win and two P5 victories and just one 3-point loss to a bowl-eligible team.
