The Memphis Tigers football team enters a bye week with a winless 0-4 record. Memphis isn't the only Conference USA team unable to lock down a win. In addition to the Tigers, Houston, Southern Miss, Tulane and UAB are also fielding horrible clubs this year. The sad part is, both Houston and USM were both in the conference championship game last year. With the way things are going, USM and Memphis may be playing each other to avoid a zero win season on Thanksgiving Weekend.
Here's the picks for this week.
Last Week: 3-3
Season: 16-8 (66%)
Michigan State over Ohio State
Georgia over Tennessee-Knoxville
Trinity over Rhodes
Alabama over Mississippi
Green Bay Packers over New Orleans Saints
Houston Texans over Tennessee Titans
Weekly Liberty Bowl Projection: Tulsa vs Auburn
As the season begins to unfold, Tulsa appears to be the best team in Conference USA. Auburn is barely hanging on. No change here...yet.
