The AAC and UAB

[Jonnyeagle]

I watched highlights of the Memphis win over #6 Houston and it got me thinking I mean wow the ACC is going to be a very good basketball league especially with the both of us and UAB joining.  It’s really sad that Texas in San Antonio is so bad and not doing their fair share in hoops production though.

 Things can and do change. Nothing in life is permanent. Better to put your pride in your back pocket for now and just enjoy the ride. 👍

ESPN just released this week's ranking of top 10 Mid Majors. North Texas is 7th, UAB 3rd.

Good God, if/when we finally beat UAB, will we get as much staying power as they currently have? Unreal how hard people are sticking with them.

Let's shut them all up, finally, and beat the damn Blazers.  Beat FAU AND UAB, and let's see how the media mouths react.

Agree. They are DETERMINED to keep UAB up there. The level of love they’re getting is weird.

NET is not a poll. It's a formula based ranking. If they're up higher it's because the formula had them there. With them losing to ODU today, except them to drop.

Shockingly UTEP also lost today.

Oops. Been reading so much about NET that I thought I was reading another NET thread. Sorry.

UAB will drop now.

Loss to SMU and Memphis. Is Houston losing their mojo?

Wait...    This is really exciting news!   Not sure how we're going to handle Duke and UNC each year, but I'm really pumped about this!!

I wanted to make this joke too, but I already did in another thread around a month ago and was hoping someone else would cover it this time.  Thank you for not letting me down.  🙂

New AAC effect.

I was watching that game too and was thinking, "Wow imagine getting a nationally televised BB game on ABC, on a Saturday."
