Sorry boss but the AAC is a BCS conference. They get an auto bid for a BCS game. It doesn't matter what they are when Rutgers and Louisville leave b/c the BCS will be over with.

Im not reading the last 7 pages but A&M donors have said the SEC front office has told A&M to hold on scheduling marque ooc games. Since were new and our schedule is more versatile while the realignment scheduling is finished. Im sure no one here will believe me, but A&M typically has at least 1 marque ooc game a year so ill buy it.

1 year on a lifeline does not make a BCS conference long term
10 years ago it was the Big 6 (ACC, B1G, B12, BE, PAC, and SEC)
Now the discussion is already about the Big 5 and the AAC / BE is not one of them
hell, the MWC is listed in this SI article and neither the ACC or Big East appear to be future players.
The American Athletic Conference, a.k.a. the former Big East, is largely in a holding pattern until the power-five leagues fill out their cards. Its current Nos. 2-4 bowls -- Russell Athletic, Belk and Pinstripe -- are all likely parting ways, but the Beef 'O' Brady's Bowl in St. Petersburg, Fla., remains a viable option. Elsewhere, the GoDaddy Bowl (note, it's no longer GoDaddy.com) has announced it will continue its MAC-Sun Belt relationship. Other mid-major bowl partnerships will start trickling out once the major conferences finalize their respective lineups.

Agreed about that but some idiot might look at your post and go Dumb and Dumber "so there's a chance" about the future of the AAC. Need to squash those folks early and often.
