I recently broke down the American Athletic Conference race for 2013 on the Gridiron Studs Show. The newly formed conference includes the 2013 Sugar Bowl winners Louisville who everyone has predicted to win the conference going away. I say not so fast. In what many will call a shocker, I say Louisville finishes 3rd in the conference and this AAC ends up being a more competitive conference than many anticipated. Here’s how I feel the race will end up this season:
| American Athletic Conference 2013 Predictions | ||
| 1 | Rutgers | 10-2 |
| 2 | Cincinnati | 10-2 |
| 3 | Louisville | 9-3 |
| 4 | Central Florida | 9-3 |
| 5 | Southern Methodist | 7-5 |
| 6 | Houston | 6-6 |
| 7 | Connecticut | 5-7 |
| 8 | Memphis | 5-7 |
| 9 | South Florida | 4-8 |
| 10 | Temple | 4-8 |
