State of the AAC

Post by Wasted Memory »

Image
10-0 (4-0)
2 Unplayed Game
- Weeks 12 & 14
Off to a great start on the season. Still alive in the NDL Cup and has an unblemished record to date. Three unplayed games as of right now, but to be honest that seems to be pretty good this season.
11/13 Update - Knocked out two games but more importantly, knocked off one of the AAC challengers to Louisville.
11/22 Update - Has been moved to #1 in the polls. Big games coming up with UConn and Houston. Should be looking at an unblemished season though.
12/5 Update - Still retaining the #1 spot and sitting with an unblemished record. Only two games remain before UL is finished with the season and despite Houston's undefeated conference record they're not fairing well against power teams. A spot in the NC seems all but locked up at this point.

5-2 (3-1)
5 Unplayed Games
- Weeks 2, 9, 12, 13, & 14
Hard to tell what we can expect out of UConn at this time. Five unplayed games is very unusual for this coach. To be fair though, as with several other coaches in this conference, not all the unplayed games are his fault.
11/22 Update - Four straight wins has propelled Dave into the top 25. This block will see him be tested though as he faces off against Louisville and SMU.
12/5 Update - Sitting at #19 and a 5-2 overall record. Five games to go but must will probably be sim wins. Definitely a bowl game in UConn's future but a CC is out of the question.

5-2 (2-2)
5 Unplayed Games
- Weeks 1, 10, 12, 13, & 14
Sitting at 3-0 and looking pretty good so far. Has exited the NDL Cup and is waiting on Houston to get revenge for him. Same as UL with 3 unplayed games.
11/13 Update - Played Louisville but came up short. Rutgers still has a good record but now they must hope for Louisville to lose two conference games.
11/22 Update - Hasn't done anything since the last update. Has been bumped into the top 25 though.
12/5 Update - Couple games still left to go. Has a ranked game against UConn on the schedule that could be huge. Much like UConn though, their pretty well locked up for a bowl game at this point.

4-4 (4-0)
4 Unplayed Games
- Weeks 11, 12, 13, & 14
Took a big chance this season and paid the price. The good news, however, is that he's still at 1-0 in conference play...and alive in the NDL Cup. Is Houston a challenger to Louisville? We'll see.
11/22 Update - 2-0 in conference is almost good enough to bump them up however they're still sitting there with an overall losing record right now.
12/5 Update - Back at .500 now and more importantly sitting with an unblemished conference record. Houston wanted a tough schedule and they got it. It hasn't been easy for them, but with #1 Louisville still on the slate they can make up for some of these loses.

3-2 (0-2)
7 Unplayed Games
- Weeks 5, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, & 14
Has a loss on the season and unfortunately it is in conference play. With the group in the AAC that could be it for his chance to win the conference. As with the other two with him in this category he also has 3 unplayed.
11/22 Update - Sliding. 0-2 in a conference full of teams struggling to win.
12/5 Update - Seven unplayed games is a lot. To be honest it's time to start realizing there's going to be a lot of sim games this season and SMU is in line to be a sim game for their remaining 7 opponents.

1-9 (0-6)
2 Unplayed Games
- Weeks 13 & 14
11/22 Update - ....
12/5 Update - Noley has been busy, busy losing... But at least he's playing his games which is more than can be said for a lot of coaches this season.




Image
1-6 (1-2)
5 Unplayed Games
- Weeks 10, 11, 12, 13, & 14
11/22 Update - Came out of nowhere and knocked out 5 games. Unfortunately they were all L's. Maybe next...uh....
12/5 Update - Has a win but only one. Best he can hope for at this time is a .500 record but there's 3 teams left on the schedule that are playing their games so it's not going to happen



Image
2-4 (1-3)
5 Unplayed Games
- Weeks 6, 8, 10, 11, & 14
Update 11/22 - Had a brief sighting for Memphis. Two games have been played so we'll move them off the "WTF" column but will probably be back there soon.
12/5 Update - Four more games knocked out and was able to pick up 2 W's. For Memphis that's quite an accomplishment. We'll ignore that one was a early sim win.



Image
2-4 (2-2)
6 Unplayed Games
- Weeks 1, 8, 10, 12, 13, & 14
11/22 Update - Still has a lot of unplayed games but they are at .500 in the conference...which is better than 5 other teams.
12/5 Update - Spoke to soon. Has played one game since the last update. Should probably be moved down to the next category but hey, it's the holiday season.

0-3 (0-1)
9 Unplayed Games
- Weeks 1, 2, 6, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, & 14
11/13 Update - Gets moved off the "WTF" list but unfortunately only gets to go to the "Thumbs Down" one. UCF can still easily bounce back from this, especially considering who the two loses were against. The schedule gets easier.
11/22 Update - Still looking for win number one...and has a ton of games to get in.
12/5 Update - The only thing that's changed since the last update is the amount of games unplayed, which grew.
