Bad memory. We got the full-sized trophy for clearly being the best team that season.

UCF and UC got the 3/4 sized trophies. UCF for pulling off a Hail Mary vs. ECU, and UC for getting mud-stomped by us. Try to keep up.

Just trying to keep the legend alive. .

Excellent. It's definitely funny, especially since some peeps took it seriously for a minute.

Love the thread so far.

I believe it our 3rd

Enjoy it. It's well deserved. ECU hasn't had an ABC game since we upset VT in 2015 & given our lack of prowess since then that's definitely a good thing. If we can some how get back to ABC next year I won't take it for granted.

It wasnt long ago that our program was in worse shape than your is now. Yall will get back to where you belong. Just takes the right hire and some patience.

The Memphis Tigers should be the patron saint of lost and hopeless football teams.

Tiger fans savor the good times because we know the ethereal nature of success.

News flash. Six of the 13 schools in this conference are located in the Central Time Zone, and one of the ETZ schools plays in the West division, lol.

This ain't the Big East any more. It's the Big South.

So more than half play in EST...majority rules.

Hog fans saying Norvell turned them down so Fickell is now talking to them

If this is more than just a rumor, I hope it gets plastered all over the national media, and all of y'all should too! What a statement for the AAC! Maybe the next big step TOWARD autonomy.

Shaky majority. 7 to 6 if you count both Navy and Wichita. And Navy plays in the West division, lol.

And NEXT season, it will be 6 to 6, with UConn gone.

I agree, but I never felt like Ark was a threat.

How can anyone who is enjoying this level of success can honestly say they are eager to jump into a pressure cooker situation in which truly, if you are a sane person, you know you can't do better than 4th place in YOUR DIVISION no matter how well you coach or recruit?

I know, I know, 5-7 million reasons to do it, but some folks know there is more to happiness.

4th place? I'd say A&M has a better shot at that most years. So Arky will usually be fighting for 5th place in a DIVISION with the two Mississippis.

I'm thinking it's more than a rumor. Some peeps at Memphis who would know saying the same thing. Not saying it's gospel, IDK, but it seems like it could be.

It also doesn't mean that Norvell won't take some other job this off season. I'm sure he will get several inquiries.

Who would want to snort like a Pathetic Pig when you can Roar like an Alpha Tiger for the same Money? Arkansas literally has nothing working in their favor to attract high-level coaches. They're a dead-end job.

CMN will get a hell of a bump after this year. I'd say at least 4mil. He just might be in a place he's happy. Go Tigs!

We should coordinate an awesome Thanksgiving for Cincy fans. It's the day after Thanksgiving, they are traveling to Memphis to visit family and friends, and attend a helluva an awesome AAC Football game, lol. Stop by any tent on Tiger Lane, Cincy fans, we're more than happy to feed you and provide free beer. Don't be shy. Eat up and drink up.

I'm going up to spend Thanksgiving with my son and his Fiance in Reno. We'll all be watching the game at the Silver Legacy. Just bought a bunch of Tiger gear today for the three of us. Gonna be Loud and Proud.

I don't care if it wasn't. It needs to play in the media for all it's worth!

Imagine if College Game Day had awaited for this AAC matchup if we both win out until then. The Golden Goose that could have laid the AAC Golden Egg.
