Why don't you check the overall series history between UAB/memphis. UAB has owned memphis is that series. Not sure why u would be arrogant towards UAB. Most likely would get beat by them in the bham bowl.

hate to break the news to you but West and Porter are not coaching the Tigers anymore.

history and a cup of coffee may get you a caffeine fix but not a guaranteed win over Memphis

Ask MTSU fans how that line of thinking worked out for them this year. I fully agree that the Blazers had our number, but we firmly believe we are finally rising above that.

Yeah, the first 9 games we played against Florida State we were 7-2 in the 60s and 70s. I'm sure we would be within our rights to go to their board and tell them not to be arrogant towards Memphis.

This is a new day.

Past success does not ensure future results. My guess is the Tigers would be favored over UAB if the teams played Saturday.

So Darrell Hackney ain't walking through that door?

Exactly.

Yea, and we have a 2-0 record against Auburn, blah,blah,blah. Dude, you're UAB. Nuff said.

4th Down, I cordially invite you to go back and read post # 81. You obviously skipped over it. MEMPHIS is moving forward and not interested in CUSA.

Funny....never got accustomed to any typical ferocious beatdown in football from UM. 10-5 record (for the good guys in Green & Gold) is not what I would typically think of a "typical ferocious beatdown manner to which your fans have grown accustomed."

but you go on and keep thinking that if it helps you feel better.

Yeah, that didn't sound right
