Best seasons everOn Bluesky
I don't think Memphis has ever taken a loss that hasn't felt offensive to me. It's very parasocial
Read on BlueskyI was keeping an eye on Memphis tonight and didn't realize til after that the turnover count was SIX. I was more preoccupied with how they were getting sacked every drop back against a team that hasn't gotten sacks all year. Innovators!
Read on BlueskyA beautiful mess at the end of the first half for Memphis-Tulane. Tulane throws a bad INT with <15 seconds left to put Memphis in FG range. Memphis throws a pick-six on the final play of the half. College football!

A title the article files under a conference the team wasn’t in that season is listed under the one it was. Division titles include years the team tied for its division.
