Why I'm proud to be a member of the American Conference - C0|db|00ded - 02-22-2018 12:49 AM
Athletes are bigger and can jump higher
Fanbases are larger
Cities are cooler and more interesting
Super duper brand name schools like Cincinnati, Memphis, UConn
Excellent all-around schools like Houston, Temple, Tulsa, UCF, USF, Tulane, SMU, and ECU
Coaches with national reputations
Coaching salaries that are nothing to sneeze at
Every school in the conference has multiple sports in which they can brag about
Big boy football (not just D1)
Excellent, excellent baseball (Wichita State was a baseball first school for many, many years)
Impressive academics
And last but not least... a GREAT conference message board!!!

Still celebrating that win I see. . .
Naw in all honesty I completely agree. +2 good sir inebriated or not.
Let me also add multiple ranked teams in all the major sports (football, men's basketball, women's basketball, baseball)

I think our only rivals cities wise would be pac 12. Other than that I don't think it's close.

I bet the Ohio Valley or Horizon would take us. What the heck, about the same level of reputation with ESPN as the AAC anyway.
