You know we lost to Kentucky. The majority of the country couldn’t tell you who won the AAC last year. I couldn’t tell you who won the AAC two years ago. I couldn’t tell you who won the ACC, PAC-12, or Big Ten regular season or tournament championships last year.
It will be nice to win the AAC to rub it in all your little internet trolls’ faces but I don’t expect any sort of national pub or notoriety from it. March and April are all I care about.

I can tell you who DIDN’T win the AAC conference tourney two years ago..... SMU.
Gotta be in it to win it and frankly..... we probably would have.
(How’s THAT for my attempt at Wheatie hyperbole?)

We only know who lost to Kentucky because you won’t shut up about it. You come in expecting everyone to bow down and anoint you “flagship” before winning ANYTHING! Win some games and the talk.

RE: 12/27 AAC Basketball Game (Opening Day of Conference Play)
March is all that matters. All people know about SMU is they suck in the NCAA tourney. They are no better than Creighton in that regard. Cretin used to tout all of their conference championships also. Pretty funny stuff when that is all you can pump your chest about. Just like when Dougie claimed he would rather win the Valley than go to the Final Four. Stupid......

SMU has a lot of similarities with Creighton actually.
Rich, spoiled kids
Can't win in March
...etc
Just Creighton has a much better following

Of course I would rather make it to the Sweet 16 and beyond. Just tired of hearing about how bad ass it was to lose in the round of 32 to Kentucky.

It's still better than winning a conference championship. 1+ win in the tourney is ALWAYS better.

I bet UConn is butthurt AF that they didn't win the Big East regular season in 2011 or the AAC regular season in 2014.
Much better to commit seppuku while simultaneously sharting on your own face in R64 with that CONFERENCE CHAMPION label than doing something when it counts amirite?

It's like the Sryxcuse fans who think 1 > 4 because they're now in the ACC.

It's almost like that comment was directed at a SMU fan or something.

Yeah man. I didn't mention Cincy. No argument from me.
Just these Creighton.....I mean....Smoo fans.
Anyway. Good luck UCF. I am afraid SMU will win by about 10. But I am pulling for ya!

Anyone can win a single tournament game. IMO, making the second weekend (Sweet 16 or greater) is a season worth bragging about.
Most Recent Sweet 16 Appearance:
2015: Wichita State
2014: UCONN
2012: Cincinnati
2009: Memphis
2001: Temple
2000: Tulsa
1984: Houston
1967: SMU
N/A: UCF
N/A: Tulane
N/A: USF
N/A: ECU

Not saying anything SMU fans don’t know... we need to win in March to get more national respect.

I’ll take a regular season conference championship and tournament championship over losing in the round of 32 any day. We sit here talking about championships, you guys won’t shut up about losing to Kentucky.
Oh dear God. You didn’t just say you’d take a meaningless, cosmetic regular season championship over NCAA tournament victories, did you? Please say you didn’t.
We have a Creighton ideaology alert. I repeat, we have a Creighton ideaology alert.
For the record, we have more than our fair share of conference titles AND NCAA tournament victories. And it’s not even close. I can’t believe you’re embarrassing your program and the AAC like you are. Please tell me not all SMU fans think this. Good God.
Cincinnati in Tourney... 16 wins over .500
WSU in Tourney......... 18 wins total
