We're going to be here for a while so might as well build up rivalries for our time here.

SMU and Navy have a 16 game rivalry going back to 1930.

How that happened, I have no idea. But the rivalries we have in the AAC appear to be USF, Temple, and Cincinnati. So far.

I consider Temple to be our rivalry going forward. We have had really good/bad games against each other.

*** Edit, I previously made a dumba$$ statement regarding who the coach was. My bad.

Um.

Did I miss Ambrose being hired by Temple?

Serious question, how are you so drunk at 830am? Ambrose coaches Towson. Matt Rhule coaches Temple.

I'd rather Cincy be our rival, but we have no real rivals in this conference. Lets add UMass to the schedule every year. It would be closer to a rivalry than anything here.

I know that USF doesn't feel like a rival to us, but their fan site is named after that play that they tried to run against us (Voodoo 5)...clearly they hate us more than we hate them.

I hate this conference more than any individual school in it. I'd say Mike Aresco is our biggest rival.

we need a rival that has a serious Napoleon complex and is short-dicked. Don't forget we're replacing Rutgers here.
That would be Memphis. Bring on the Tigers!

I said short-dicked, not no-dicked.
They've produced draft picks higher than us.

Fans were citing USF as one of the best games they saw at the Rent at the last game on the jumbotron, if I am recalling correctly. UCF and USF are recruiting better than Illinois.
