The AAC is just too tough.

Pal Stop it. You know we’re too good for this league. After all we are currently holding up the standings.

I just looked st the standings and I would argue that we are holding the league up. After all only USF is lower due to having played and lost more games. Of course, we lost to them.

The toughest part is not the teams or the travel, it is the officiating.

I know we share refs among a few leagues. I think the SEC is one. Losing teams ALWAYS complain about officiating. And some studies suggest that bad teams actually do get hosed a bit anyway. For example a player on a bad team gets called for a walk while a good player does exactly the same thing and gets away with it partly it has been suggested because refs “assume” the bad player can’t make the play but the good one can and it affects the way the see the play. Best example of the latter was LeBron’s famous no call travel a few weeks back. But a similar thing happens on less obvious plays. Good players and teams get the close calls. Bad ones don’t.
