From the Group Chat to the Gridiron: AAC Quarterbacks Face Off IRL

The American Athletic Conference championship heats up even more this weekend as UTSA travels to the Big Easy to do battle with #24 Tulane. Meanwhile, 500 miles west, SMU prepares to fend off Navy in an attempt to secure its own path to conference glory.

But the UTSA-Tulane matchup isn’t just about two teams vying for a conference title or the AAC’s best tackler (UTSA’s Trey Moore) lining up against an offensive line that has seen its QB sacked only 12 times this season. It’s also about the friendship between the two quarterbacks that sparked a movement amongst several G5 gunslingers - a joining of forces by college football’s David’s in their respective battles against various Goliaths.
