Burger Fest, Football

Memphis-area burger fans are happy to see a new festival next weekend. The Best Memphis Burger Fest will be held Sunday, September 30 from 10:30am to 5pm at Minglewood Hall. There will be a burger cooking competition, a team Kookamonga burger eating contest, live entertainment and more. This sounds like a fun time.

Another football weekend is in full swing. Rhodes is off to a nice 2-0 start, but their schedule gets a little tougher today when Birmingham Southern comes to Fargason Field. The 1pm game might be great way to enjoy the weather and have a lazy Saturday in Midtown.

Here's the picks for this week.

Last Week: 5-1
Season: 13-5 (72%)


Birmingham Southern over Rhodes
South Carolina over Missouri
Duke over Memphis
Clemson over Florida State
New Orleans Saints over Kansas City Chiefs
Detroit Lions over Tennessee Titans
