Temple has projected #21 OOC SOS and #32 overall SOS. With those numbers, if they get to 18 wins, they're going to have a top 40 RPI with a good SOS. Teams like that get in easily...
SMU has an easier schedule- but still #109 OOC SOS and #74 overall SOS. And accordingly they're projected with 22 wins. 22-9 with their SOS is projected to be a 44.5 RPI. Teams like that generally get in pretty much every time. If they can split with USC and TCU, they're in really good shape. That Arizona win will resonate all year long.
Missouri is not a BAD team. And if they are, what does that say about St Johns, whom they beat by 8? And UCF is missing their best player.
And really wouldn't count out UConn yet. They have projected #8 OOC SOS and #26 overall SOS. If they get to 19 wins they're in pretty easily.
The AAC can get 5 in way more likely than getting only 2 in.

See, here's the thing...you sold us this same horse hockey last year. Wasn't Memphis going to get in "pretty easily" because they were going to win 22 or 23 games? Of course they were, right up until they lost 7 of 9 to end the season. Conversely, you didn't see anyway that Providence, and Seton Hall, and Marquette...were going to win enough games to get in the tournament and then, after the fact, made excuses for why the Big East got 7 teams in and your conference got two. 2 teams. out of 12 or 13...that's not good Stever. Always some excuse why the Stever is wrong. The only commonality is that the Stever is wrong a lot, if not all the feckin time.
And I am counting UConn out.

And Temple is beating South Carolina by 11 points. UCF down only by 6 to Missouri early 2nd half. If AAC would get both of those wins, that's a good night.
South Carolina is not good.
UCF lost to a BAD team.
Memphis is really bad.
Gun to your head...who in the AAC makes the tourney outside of WSU and Cincy?
