AAC Championship TV Rating

[Jimmy Serrano]

This is what transpired:

Last week the AAC and PAC held their conference championship games.

The PAC 12, a power 5 conference, had its biggest brand, USC, playing with an outside shot of making the playoff.

Meanwhile, the AAC had UCF and Memphis matched up, no shot at the playoffs and neither approaching blue blood status.

Last week, roughly the same number of people chose to watch the AAC championship game as chose to watch the PAC championship.

That is inarguable and it is gosh darn impressive.

You should just stop at “it’s a good number for the AAC”.

The rest is just completely and utterly silly without the context.

 

[Guapo]

3 million something people watched the AAC championship game, matching the number that watched a P5 championship game featuring USC.

I'm sorry, that means something to me.

You and your roomie just can't stand a positive outlook on things.

I liked it better when you signed off on the boneyard and said you were going away.

By the way, yes there are more than 3 players that Diaco recruited that can play in the AAC.

You really need to get over yourself.

Anyone who is a gambler place your bets the hockey know it all will have plenty to say. Especially since he has a $400K household income.

Doosh and doosh 2.

It's a good number, and certainly worthy of ammunition for Aresco. I'm sure that he's perfectly aware of it and preparing to use it to our advantage.

We had an undefeated team trying to remain undefeated against a ranked opponent. The MW didn't habe that scenario, and didn't get the bossy that came with it. Also, it was Orlando metro vs Memphis metro, which both provided a lot of eyeballs...

So you are saying it sucks to be the MWC?

You’re an odd guy.

For someone who doesn’t care you sure are upset for having it pointed out you posted something dumb.

The good news for those who combine ignorance with an arrogance about it you are home.

Did you steal the arrogance and ignorance bit from Metallica's Holier Than Thou? Be honest!

My autocorrect is doing some funny things. Habe instead of have, and bossy instead of numbers. I have no idea how the second one happened.

But yes, sucks to be the MWC. Even more so because what little tv money they get, much of it goes to Boise.

It would really be nice if UConn could get a contract commensurate with our output and support...

Metallica Lyrics - Holier Than Thou

I never got into Metallica. I was a freshman in 91 when the Metallica album came out - it was played around the clock.

After that the only thing I know about them is they hated Napster.

I came up with the ignorance and arrogance line about a coworker the other day when their boss asked for year end feedback.

HS Freshman in 91' or college? Makes a big difference. I was a Junior at UCONN in 91 and was more into the Seattle music scene then. My Freshman roommate was BIG into Metallica in 88', when they were still speed metal. I hated them then and we had many fist fights over which CD or cassette we were going to play during our room parties. Good times! I didn't like Metallica until they sold out. Right about the time my roommate cut his hair and burned their old vinyl. LOL.

Who usually won out? Metallica or Barry Manilow?

You could just block us if it’s all this upsetting to you.

Not for nothing but Edsall agrees on Diaco’s recruiting prowess.

Person on internet has strong opinions. Film at 11.

Oddly enough, no Barry but I did have a Traveling Willbury/Vanilla Ice phase. Don't judge me on the VI part.

Nice car guy. Did it solve the midlife crisis?

You’re an odd guy.

Thank you for proving my point. You and Mr Narcissist really think you got it going on.

But you don't.

Please go back to the silent mode you promised us.

Lighten up and take a break. You’re embarrassing yourself.

You should flip the avatar sideways so we can read it.

It helped that it was a close game vs the B12 rout.

Lithium.

Great chord progression.

 

[uconnbill]

The AAC title game was on network TV. The PAC 12 and MWC were on cable.

The MWC was against the ACC and Big Ten.

So who 'd in your cornflakes today

 

[Confident Carl]

In my humble opinion, this is the type of info Arseco should be shouting from mountain tops

Oh he will!

 

[RSTuthill]

My second, actually. Here is a pic of the first, at speed, in the Bolton Valley Hill Climb of 1968. I am past mid life, btw.

We're much closer to P5 than we are to the G4.
