The MWC vs the AAC: Which is the top Group of 5 conference?

Over the past four seasons, it is no secret that the American Athletic Conference and the Mountain West Conference are considered the upper echelon of what is termed the Group of Five, or the five conference outside of what is known as the Power Five. Although all ten conferences make up the FBS, college football fans know the divide between the two groups is great and ever-widening.

Due to this, there is a competition to be considered the best of the rest, or top Group of Five conference. But which one is the best? Both have been able to make that claim at various times in their histories.
