The American Athletic Conference has no defending football champion.
Tulane running back Makhi Hughes carries past UTSA linebackers Martavius French and Avery Morris on a 58-yard run in the first half of an NCAA college football game in New Orleans, Friday, Nov. 24, 2023. Still, three other top AAC teams from last season — Memphis, Tulane and UTSA — are back and primed to contend.
“All these things occurring this offseason puts a smile on you face,” said Silverfield, who then emphasized that Memphis has not won the AAC since 2019, the year before he took over the program. “Personally, as a head coach, I haven’t accomplished anything that I want to in this conference."The Roadrunners rebounded to beat Marshall in a bowl game — the final game for prolific QB Frank Harris, who passed for nearly 12,000 yards and rushed for more than 2,000 during six seasons at UTSA.
His time as a Green Wave assistant early in his coaching career familiarized him with the school and New Orleans, which he calls “one of the coolest cities in the world.” Whoever wins the job will work with a receiver corps headlined by another of Sumrall’s early recruiting coups: USC transfer Mario Williams.
