The American Athletic Conference or AAC is the most underrated Conference in college football. The AAC always provides one surprise team usually UCF, Houston, or Cincinnati. Cincinnati, the reigning AAC champions, were the first team from the conference to make a CFP appearance. With starting QB Desmond Ridder and defensive playmaker Ahmad Gardner leaving for the NFL will Cincinnati be able to repeat as AAC champions?
