    Memphis gave up 50 to Arkansas State. F-I-F-T-Y. I'm not saying we will score 50, but I can easily see us scoring 40, and there is simply no way our defense gives up more than 30 points, so I just don't know what I'm missing;

    Our defense gave up 34 to la tech, at home. We are capable of giving that up on the road at Memphis.

    But if we match their energy level we will be ok. That's my biggest concern.

    And I don't see us scoring 40 if they don't kick to Tulu. Which I can't imagine they will.

    27 points - Will threw a pick 6.

    So yeah - if we give up two big time busts and still give up 27 points, I think we win by double digits.

    Memphis offense may be better than la tech. So if we are capable of giving up 27 at home to the latter, we are are capable of giving up more on the road to a team with a better offense that runs tempo in their biggest game of the year.

    That is what betters are seeing. I hope they are wrong and think they are. I think we keep them at 30 or under. Not sure we can score 34 though, which is what it would take to cover if we give up 30.

    Not sure who wins yet.

    Their players say they have this one circled. We don't.
    Cough cough. Could see this one from a mile away.
