On a positive note, this was scheduled to be our actual bye week!

On this week's show, we cover the loss at SMU and ask the question should we have waited to start until now? We also pay a brief tribute to Eddie Van Halen and talk a little bit about the loss of our entire SID department at Memphis a little over a week ago.

Game week is finally here! Again. For the first time in 28 days, Memphis takes to the field. They face a tall order against one of the best QBs in the country in Shane Buechele and the 3-0 SMU Mustangs. John, Bryan and Larry were joined by Damon Sayles, managing editor of The Hilltopic.

Segment 2, we gave our thoughts on how Memphis might handle the layoff.

John only waited until week 2 to get voted off the island as he predicted a Tigers loss.

Let's lace em up and get ready to hit somebody!

John, Larry and Bryan start off this week’s show by talking about the passing of Tom III and how truly unique of a tradition it was to have a live tiger. We also discussed the communication issues surrounding Tom IV and how the whole situation went down.
Memphis was supposed to play at UTSA this Friday, but due to the ongoing covid outbreak, Memphis was forced to cancel the game. We then covered the fact that Memphis will go 28 days between games, 2 weeks of virtually no practice, and then 7 straight weeks to close the season- with the addition of the Stephen F Austin game on November 21st.
After the break we broke down some of the top stories in college football- most notably the hiring of “Coach Prime” Deion Sanders by Jackson State. We wrapped up the show by going over the upcoming games of local interest in the SEC and AAC. Finally, we are all looking forward to the Army/Cincy game.

John, Larry and Bryan talk about the big win over Arkansas State and we discuss party bus gate and the role of media in today's landscape.

Its finally here! Game week. John, Larry and Bryan have all the breakdown of the matchups as the Red Wolves visit the Liberty Bowl.

John, Larry and Bryan go on the record with their predictions for each Tigers game in this most unusual of seasons!

On this weeks' episode, John, Bryan, and Larry talk about the loss of UT-Martin from the schedule. They also get into the end of fall camp and how the practice schedule changes. We also talk about the leave of absence for one of the team's best players. We close with a look at the dumbest unwritten rules in sports.

Oh, and Bryan gets a promotion!

On this weeks show, John, Bryan and Larry talk about the scheduling challenges facing Memphis and other AAC teams. While there is speculation about the model, we operated under the assumption that the AAC would adopt a model that would allow teams to play 8 league games and up to 4 non-conference games.

Additionally, we talked about the situation around high school football and the impact it may have on juniors that need a season to raise their stock.

John and Larry are joined by Bryan Moss from TigerSportsReport.com as we discuss recruiting in the coronavirus era- from how Coach Silverfield and the Memphis have put together a stellar class to how it affects plans going forward.

In segment 2, we talk about how one team in the league is getting more media love than we think they deserve and why we think offensive player of the year isn't a foregone conclusion.

Finally, in our last segment we get to the heart of the coronavirus matter and what it means for scheduling, athletic departments and student athletes...and John nominates himself as the athletic director of UL, U'Pickem (thanks Bottom 10- may you live on forever!)

What a year 2019 was. From a 1st ever AAC Championship Game win to a berth in the 2019 Cotton Bowl Classic versus Penn State, John and Larry discuss the year that was in Tigers Football
