An impressive seven teams out of the American Athletic Conference will go bowling this season after a successful year headlined by Temple's 10-win AAC title run.
So how did these teams celebrate their berths? The answer lies on social media where each program's account offered congratulations and support via Twitter through a strand of highly-entertaining gifs and videos with references ranging from rapper Drake to "The Hangover."
Best of luck to @UCF_Football, @TulsaFootball, @MemphisFB, @NavyFB, @Temple_FB & @USFFootball this bowl season. #Power6 https://t.co/8H4bxKuNp2

It's nice to see these familiar foes all come together after a grueling stretch of conference games to close out the year. Now that the period of jostling for position within the AAC is over, there's only support to hand out among the conference brotherhood as bowl season rapidly approaches.
