And we can argue year after year about which conference is better based on how many teams make the NCAA Tournament, but one thing that you cant argue is the perception and honestly fact that UConn is on an island of misfit toys in the AAC. We have zero regional rivals, the closest school in our conference is in Philadelphia. We have little in common with most of the schools in our conference. The majority of the schools in the AAC are not, and never will be the main course in the state or region they are located. North Carolina will always belong to Duke, UNC, NC State, nobody cares about ECU.  Oklahoma will always be owned by OU, not Tulsa. Texas will always be Longhorn territory, not SMU, and not Houston. I dont care how good USF becomes in basketball or football,  Florida will always be Miami, FSU, and Gator country.

Those are just facts, and thats one of the reasons why people have said UConn will no longer be relevent on the National stage when they are in the AAC.
