I am entirely convinced that the American Athletic Conference will never be normal.
In a week that featured a unique slate of games — including five games against Power 5 opponents — the AAC did what they do best and caused an incredible amount of chaos. Seriously, starting with the Iron Skillet Battle between SMU and TCU to the nightcap of Rice and Houston, there was not a sense of normality throughout the week.
Overall, AAC teams finished with six wins and five losses, a figure that’s partly skewed by a conference game between East Carolina and Navy.
