I'm not convinced those in the AAC are even getting all of their work done. Temple got one against Wichita, but it was in Philly, and Wichita is slowly starting to tumble metrically. Wichita is a lock...but they may not be Group 1 by season's end for Temple or Houston. SMU shouldn't even be in the conversation right now. Temple's only there because their SOS is so darn high.

Temple also has some really putrid losses (Tulane, GW, La Salle) to offset those strong wins. It's AQ or bust for them.

It really isn't though. If they finish with 19 or 20 wins(to include the conference tourney) they're going to have a RPI in the 30's with a top 15 SOS. With wins over 2 top 10 teams in Auburn and Clemson. Resume's like that get in pretty much every single time.
