How Long Will the American Athletic Conference Last?

The AAC is having the best year of its existence in football. Many of the teams at the top (not counting UCF which is in dead last) have been talked about as potential expansion candidates for the last few years. With Cincinnati's win over Miami last night, i couldnt help but notice with the upgraded facilties and fan support, how they arent in a P5 conference, and they are middle of the pack this year in the AAC? If the AAC has continued success this year, will conferences like the Big 12 look to finally add some of these schools, or is conference realignment dead?
Current overall standings by wins:
Memphis 4-0
Houston 3-0
Temple 3-0
Navy 3-0
Cincinnati 3-2
Tulsa 2-1
Uconn 2-2
East Carolina 2-2
South Florida 1-2
Tulane 1-2
SMU 1-3
UCF 0-4....SHOCKING!

The AAC is basically the old Metro nowadays, without SLU, U of L, and Virginia Tech.

Anyone want to explain why the B12 doesn't add Cincy?
Much better addition than West Virginia

Until the tv deals are over. Then the Big12 will get split up and the ACC wil take a few AAC schools and then the others regroup. We end up with 4 16 team powerconferences and 4 16 weaker conferences. What the names of those weaker conferences are who knows.

The P5 conferences will raid the AAC. The AAC will raid CUSA. CUSA will raid the MAC and Sunbelt.

Houston might be invited to kiss Tex's ring some day. Huge metropolis. If they win, pay their coach and draw, sure.
Temple is a commuter school. They don't draw flies.
Cincinnati
I could see them being taken into the ACC after a few top end ACC teams are taken by the Big 10/SEC to make 16.
