I was just checking out a memphis message board and about 60% of the people on there were saying that since memphis is picked to win c-usa and we are picked to contend for the sec(like in 03 when we lost the opener to memphis) and that its nationally televised means that they will upset us! If we lost to that insignificant team our season would de-rail fast but our talent alone should guarantee a win against them. I am a little timid though cause besides last year they always seem to be motivated against us. We have a new coach now and coach nutt is notorius for beating teams hes supposed to beat so we should kill memphis but the point is they are very obnoxious about this game ( they've always hated us because eveything from academics to sports is better then the memphis)

I havent seen anything that says Memphis will win CUSA or even finish in the top 3.

Their beat writer, Phil Stukeburg, said they were going to win the East. They are terrible and do not ever go to memphistigers.org. It is a site on the same level as Hogville and took a year of my life, I was actually banned from that board for being reasonable.

I went there after the game date change was announced, and i was extremely surprised that the majority were in agreement that we were going to kick their butts.

I believe that we will win, and we better.

But, this is a "sleeper" contest that could make us stumble. Same as USCar. We get through those games, I say we go undeafeated.

This game could very well set the tone for the whole season. If we give Memphis a good, old-fashioned butt-whipping, I think it will give this team an edge going into the rest of the season.

Memphis always thinks they are going to win against us. They do tend to give us more trouble than they should. They have a huge inferiority complex when it comes to Ole Miss. Their coach, Tommy West, has lobbied for the Ole Miss job on more than one occasion only to not receive serious consideration.

On paper we should win. In reality the players have to come to play as a team. The coaches have to prepare them to be able to execute the plays and be successful. The prob with Memphis is they prepare for this game like it is their last.
Memphis recruited some nice jucos this year and will be a much more talented team than last year.
How many times have we had the much better team only to scratch out a last second win? Memphis will bring their best so we had better be prepared.

Remember the Rebel team which lost to Wake Forest, Vanderbilt, and South Carolina? Yeah, that's basically the same team that hung 40 on Memphis. I'm not worried. They will not be able to keep us from scoring.
