Big Win For Downtown, Football

Downtown Memphis earned a big win with today's announcement of Pinnacle Airlines moving its headquarters to One Commerce Square. The addition of Pinnacle's employees will be welcome news to Downtown business owners, especially the parking and restaurant industries.

As expected, Memphis did make it into the ESPN Bottom 10 this week, coming in at #9. The Tigers are in good company. At #5 is SEC powerhouse Georgia.

Here's the picks for this week.

Last Week: 5-1
Season: 23-7 (76%)

DePauw over Rhodes
Louisville over Memphis
Alabama over South Carolina
Arkansas State over North Texas
New Orleans Saints over Arizona Cardinals
Dallas Cowboys over Tennessee Titans

Weekly Liberty Bowl projection: Central Florida vs Tennessee-Knoxville

Central Florida and UAB are on ESPN tonight. This should actually be a good game.
