They kept ND high because of a close Clemson loss. I'm telling you that Batlor [ Finebaum ]ting the bed is not good for us.

Must be nice having an auto bid. Didn't exist when we went to BCS bowls, had to earn our way in

Dude, there were always six autobids.  In the old days, the 8-team Big East had the sixth bid.  Five of those teams left, and so now the three leftovers plus about 60 other schools have to compete for that sixth bid.
 
By the way, the American has five teams among the Top 35 in the nation per the final AP Poll.  That's more than the ACC (3) or Big 12 (4) and the same as the Pac 12.  It's not like the American was chopped liver this year.  We had to beat out those teams plus the MWC, CUSA and MAC champs who were also Top 35.
 
What we did this year was at least as stringent as what the old Big East teams had to do.  We earned it with three Top 25 wins in November/December.

Why did you make the cutoff Top 35? Why not 30? Why not 40? Why not 25? Why not 20? 

You remind me of those idiot gambling touts like RJ Bell who use worthless trends like "Team X is 15-4 ATS in their last 19 games when playing on the road as a dog in a dome". Why is 19 the cutoff? Why not 20? 21? 22? 18? 17?

American - 3
SEC  - 4
ACC - 3
Pac 12 - 3
Big 12 - 4

Line up the American top to bottom against the PAC........

Stanford/UH
Oregon/Temple
USC/Navy
Utah/Memphis
UCLA/USF
WSU/Cincy
Cal/UConn
ASU/Tulsa
Wash/ECU
Zona/Tulane
Colorado/SMU
Ore St/UCF

I'll give Memphis a shot against Utah and maybe Cincy vs WSU. That's about it. Stanford jackhammers UH.
