We are in need of someone to take over the maintenance of the MMB. Yosef has done it for a long time, and we are grateful for all he has done, but life happens and he no longer has the time to devote to its upkeep.

For us to have any shot at jumping any winning teams ahead of us, we needed to make a statement with margin of victory. We looked like we were going to, but the final score didn’t wind up that way.

And Boise is crushing Hawaii.
The winner of the AAC is going. Period. We had no shot. I don't get why people are killing themselves debating it lol.

We aren't going to the Belk Bowl either. We will be the #3 G5 team, at best. We will even fall a spot or two if UVA somehow pulled an upset.

Finishing 13-1 with a SBC title and NO Bowl win is as good as we can do with a loss, and it is a great year.

The AAC is a much stronger conference so there is no reason to torture ourselves. Unless we are undefeated we will not ever play in the NY6 as long as we are in the SBC unless the AAC Champ has 2 G5 losses.

So time for some speculation. Our win over UL should because better win than Boise over Hawaii. We should be ranked higher. Cincy wins, maybe...they are a 2 loss even though they beat ranked Memphis? I think the final ranking will be more interesting than we think as long as Cincinnati can pull it off.
Boise is tearing up Hawaii.
And Hawaii just scored. So let's keep speculating! Having fun yet?
The GSU loss, slow start to Texas State, and letting Louisiana come back today will keep us out. You have to be perfect in the SBC and we were not. I don't care if Hawaii comes back and wins this thing it does not matter. The AAC Champ is going. Period. Fact. End of story. I don't mind speculating when something is possible but we might as well speculate if we are going to get a 5-star recruit this year because both things have the same chance of happening. LOL

This is too bad because I would love to see a 4-team playoff with Memphis, Cincy, Boise, and App.

I know you believe that you are somehow doing everyone a favor, but no one wants to constantly be told what they are allowed to think and allowed to believe.

The whole purpose of this message board is to provide fans a place to discuss all things App. It may be a slim chance for either, but they're being talked about outside the confines of Yosef's Cabin. Just let people discuss the subjects they want without telling them what they can and can't think.

I get that and I'm not telling anyone what to think. I'm telling you what is going to happen. We are going to the NO Bowl. Coming from the Sun Belt we can't lose to a losing SBC team and not win big a big margin against the 2nd best team unless the AAC Champ has 2 G5 losses. It just won't happen right now.

That wouldn’t be possible. That’s three more games between next week and the NY games — after a conference championship game today. Not feasible.

Did you read the transcript from what their chairman said after the last rankings? You can read between the lines. The way he talked about Memphis and Cincy you can pretty much guarantee App is out of it. And if they aren't then Boise would go. We needed to win big and have Boise and Memphis lose for any chance. The exact opposite of those 3 things happened. We are going to the New Orleans Bowl.

There are several questions about the G5. Check out what he said directly: http://www.asaptext.com/asap_media/medi ... 44446.html

If you see something that makes you think we were in the running then let me know. There was not and even if there was we would have needed to look good today. We won a very close game against a team that we needed to make a statement on. This game was closer than the first one and they outgained us in overall yards. We looked great for 30 minutes but had to do so for 60 minutes. ULL kicked our butts in the second half and we escaped. They way we were playing I'm just excited to get the win and end up in the NO Bowl.

The next best thing for us is to beat the crap out of CUSA in NO and, with a few breaks, finish the season as the highest rated G5.

We have to win first but yes if Memphis gets throttled in the NY6, Cincy and Boise loses, and we win big over FAU or UAB then yes we possibly could. We would at least be #2 right behind Memphis.

I agree with you that CFP committee holds more weight than any of us. Again, read the transcript. I read every bit of it. The way he talked about the losses of Cincy there is no way they would not get it.

Regardless, Memphis and Boise State both won. Even if there was any chance the debate is over. Memphis is going now. I don't see what there is to speculate. It is Memphis. It is a fact.

Georgia is getting pounded so the SEC will definitely have a team available for the Belk Bowl as well.

Our only worry now is pounding a CUSA Champ or #2 in New Orleans to finish as a top 20 ranked team. The real debate is who do we get from CUSA.

I am very proud no question but you were one of a few posters who seemed to feel we could go 8-4. I am sincerely asking. What made you think that? This roster was loaded. I felt like if Drink went 8-4 he should be fired. This was a SBC Championship roster and only injuries to key players would have made me accept not winning it. I felt like 9-3 was the absolute worst case and that was if injuries and a couple bad bounces went against us.

We took our foot off the gas. We won against a good team. We are the best G5 team. We are ranked 20th in the next poll. Only Clemson out of all the schools in NC S.C. Tenn and Va is ranked higher.
Wow....All I can say is WOW!

The next best thing for us is to beat the crap out of CUSA in NO and, with a few breaks, finish the season as the highest rated G5.
We have to win first but yes if Memphis gets throttled in the NY6, Cincy and Boise loses, and we win big over FAU or UAB then yes we possibly could. We would at least be #2 right behind Memphis.
I think that’s what I said, just with less words. 😂

For us to have any shot at jumping any winning teams ahead of us, we needed to make a statement with margin of victory. We looked like we were going to, but the final score didn’t wind up that way.

And Boise is crushing Hawaii.
The winner of the AAC is going. Period. We had no shot. I don't get why people are killing themselves debating it lol.

We aren't going to the Belk Bowl either. We will be the #3 G5 team, at best. We will even fall a spot or two if UVA somehow pulled an upset.

Finishing 13-1 with a SBC title and NO Bowl win is as good as we can do with a loss, and it is a great year.

The AAC is a much stronger conference so there is no reason to torture ourselves. Unless we are undefeated we will not ever play in the NY6 as long as we are in the SBC unless the AAC Champ has 2 G5 losses.
I know you believe that you are somehow doing everyone a favor, but no one wants to constantly be told what they are allowed to think and allowed to believe.

The whole purpose of this message board is to provide fans a place to discuss all things App. It may be a slim chance for either, but they're being talked about outside the confines of Yosef's Cabin. Just let people discuss the subjects they want without telling them what they can and can't think.
I get that and I'm not telling anyone what to think. I'm telling you what is going to happen. We are going to the NO Bowl. Coming from the Sun Belt we can't lose to a losing SBC team and not win big a big margin against the 2nd best team unless the AAC Champ has 2 G5 losses. It just won't happen right now.
I wouldn’t be too sure of that. Things are in motion that may change all this. No guarantees but I was advised to hold off on making travel plans to N.O. Just yet.

Basically. I am just saying I think we could be #2 perhaps. It would be a great finish.
