2023 AAC Football season šŸˆ

At least Tulane is back on campus after almost 40 years of playing at the Superdome.

BTW, Iā€™m old enough to remember the crazy rules of the original Sun Belt Conference that required league menā€™s basketball games to be played at the largest facility available. As such, UNO too played at the Superdome! :roll_eyes:

Thats crazy UNO having to play hoops at the Dome, it is not far from either of those campuses that is one benefit.

Yes good Tulane is back on campus, amazing to think they hosted 3 Super Bowls on their campus!

Georgia State had to play in the Omni, where the Hawks played.

An Observer writer, maybe Tom Sorenson, wrote a great article about a game when the 49ers played the Panthers there. I believe he counted the crowd.

As late as 1991, Georgia State opted to play a 1 vs 16 game in the Omni at noon rather than at 7:00 PM, thinking more students might wander to the game after their morning classes than alumni coming to downtown Atlanta after work.

What is a golden hurricane? Sounds like a very intense version of a golden shower.

Not bad.

Kinda reminds me of the Biscayne Blue unis FIU recently debuted. Those looked great. Know thatā€™s off topic, but here they are:

Kinda wish we would try some stuff like this.

Gotta bookmark this one. Maybe we will even get to use it when we play them.

Interesting poll. Curious what Niner fans thinkā€¦

clt says houston is in trouble if they start 0-3

some of the ecu aac chat pagers said he thought he was getting a new job this summer

Screw houston. Would love to see him fired.

Does that mean Jones is super accurate and we need improved WR play? Or we are calling conservative pass plays because the coaches dont trust him?

Itā€™s eitherā€¦

Doesnā€™t trust the QB
or
Doesnā€™t trust the WR
or most likely
Doesnā€™t trust the OL

Or a combination of the 3.

So are people finally coming around that we might not be dead last this season? I donā€™t like predicting anything till we play the games but hopefully we can be middle of the pack at 4-4 or around there.

Anything between 6th and 10th in a tougher conference is DEFINITELY a good season and a step in the right direction.

Just hope we can finish in that range.
