Detz is back, and Memphis is up 3-0 on the Confederates......

I always seem to jinx their opponents though, so look for Ole Miss to win in the 9th as they've done 4-5 other times this year.

What inning?

[Goat Holder]

Bottom 5.

No kidding about that. They have the baseball gods on their side for the moment.

Final, Bears fall to Memphis. Memphis might not be all that bad this year.

[Todd4State]

Memphis is 11-1 this year so far. Still early of course, but they have a lot of guys back from last year.

[Coach34]

They could end up a 2-seed in the Starkville Regional

[DCdawg]

They have to finish 1 or 2 in their conference to do that and they never do. That would mean them being ahead of Rice, Southern, and Houston. Just don't see it.

Did Rice and USM make the jump to the American Athletic Conference, or whatever it's called now (the old Big East), with Memphis. I know Houston did. I haven't kept up with Memphis sports as closely as I normally do this year.

ETA: A brief look at the AAC website and I see no mention of USM. UCF, Cinci, Uconn, UH, Louisville, Memphis, Rice, South Florida, SMU, and Temple.

Looks like the AAC baseball members this year are

Louisville
Houston
UCF
Rutgers
UCONN
Temple
Memphis
USF
Cincy

My bad guys - that's what I get for assuming. I know in years past that was always the case. Even so UCF and Houston are generally as good or better than Memphis.

L'Ville has a ranked team and made it to Omaha last year so they ain't terrible. Memphis should contend for that league title this year.
