RELATED: Conference USA Football Power Rankings - Week 8

An eventful week in the American Athletic Conference with several teams having solid wins.

Let’s start with North Texas, who gets the biggest jump as the Mean Green are 5-1 and rally from a 10-point, fourth-quarter deficit to beat Florida Atlantic on the road.

TCU transfer Chandler Morris is having an excellent season as Morris threw for 336 yards and four touchdowns – out-dueling FAU’s Cam Fancher who easily had his best outing of his career.

Memphis earns a solid win over a South Florida team who looked as if they could be a darkhorse to win the league, but are struggling to find consistency.

Mike Bloomgren’s club gets a bump after a last-second win over UTSA, moving the Owls to 2-4 and keeping hope alive for postseason play. Meanwhile, UTSA slides down our power rankings following the loss and UAB holds down the last-place spot as the Blazers look hapless under Trent Dilfer.
