1 game against P5 upper echelon team on H&H deal (ex - UCLA, Missouri, Va Tech)
1 game against P5 lower echelon team on H&H deal (ex - Kentucky, Wake Forest, Kansas)
1 game against G5 opponent *usually* H&H deal but could arrange 2-1 for more home games if possible (ex - BGU, So Miss, Boise St)
1 game against in state team as buy game (Tenn Tech, UT Chat, UT Martin, Austin Peay)
MEMPHIS should *NEVER* be a teams buy game with one notable exception - Notre Dame. That is a NBC network game and worth the national exposure. Plus the $750,000 payout from the Irish is cool. This includes if Notre Dame wanted to play this game in Atlanta, Orlando, Chicago, etc.
Can't argue with any of that. Wonder if Miami still thinks it would be pointless to play us.....would like to catch them in a bowl game.

Lots of sour grapes their.
Basketball school.
Memphis fans booed a Rudy Gay.
Middle still dominated.
See you guys..congratulations on playing Memphis during one of our all time worst half decade stretches. Over now. The highlight of Middle's football existence was going 5-2 with Memphis. Kudos.
Didn't understand that angle from MTSU fans. Bragging about beating Memphis during the porter years is like bragging about winning a foot race against a special needs kid with his shoes tied together.
The end of the Tommy West era qualifies as well.....
