What To Watch For: AAC Week 11

The race for the West division continues, as Memphis visits Houston in what is an elimination game for the Tigers and a chance for the Cougars to impress the playoff selection committee against a ranked team. If Houston can win at home, it sets up a winner-take-all AAC semifinal game next week between the Cougars and Navy. Since all five games are on Saturday, I am going to go in order of importance rather than chronologically.

We have reached the time of judgement in The American, and as mentioned above, this game is huge for both teams. A second loss eliminates Memphis from the division race, while Houston has a shot to impress the committee.
