AAC is 6th. Imagine if UConn and Memphis were good again?
BPI ranks the top leagues in college basketball
6. The American
Avg. BPI rank: 6th
Top-quartile BPI rank: 7th
Projected Sweet 16 rank: 5th
With the addition of Wichita State, the American legitimately has a case for consideration as a major conference in basketball. The top of the conference is very strong, led by the Shockers and Cincinnati, both top-15 BPI teams. Houston and SMU also have at least a 50 percent chance to make the NCAA tournament, according to BPI. What hurts The American is the depth of the conferences ranked higher. Half of the American is outside of the BPI top 100, with two of its teams, South Florida and East Carolina, falling outside the top 250.
