American Athletic Conference Update

Well here it is, apparently, the season comes down to one game tonight between Louisville and Central Florida.  A conference title and BCS berth is on the line tonight, or so the media tells us.  don't get me wrong.  These two teams are playing much better than the rest of the conference but nothing will be determined tonight because it is only October 18.  Heck the loser of this game is going to wake up in the middle of the pack in this bastard child of a conference.
Okay so I have gotten that off my chest.  Despite a ridiculously high 2-TD spread tonight's game should be a very good one.  Rutgers did a lot of good against Louisville and if they had even fair-to-good QB play could have upset the Cardinals.  Louisville can play better than they showed, and should get back key WR DeVante Parker from injury.  But UCF is confident and eager to prove to the country that they are an up-and-coming college football program.  Take the points and the over!
Houston will remained undefeated in the conference because, well, they play non-member BYU.  Houston is oddly undefeated on the season but has played an absurdly easy schedule and will need to beat BYU and a few more teams before they can make a name for themselves.  BYU's secondary is bad enough that the other Cougars do have a legit chance.
There is not much else going on the AAC but then again even if there was there would not be too much attention paid.
