Memphis Tigers Football Tickets

Last season, the Memphis Tigers managed to find the basement. This season, they will look to begin climbing back toward the top. This team is not far removed from the squad that went to five bowl games in six seasons, and with the departure of former head coach Tommy West and the entrance of 38-year-old Larry Porter, the Tigers are up to the challenge. Coach Porter brings with him the big-game experience and the recruiting expertise he gained as a coach for the LSU Tigers, and now he inherits a team that is full of talent but lacking in cohesiveness.

One of the big question marks on the Memphis Tigers roster this season is at quarterback. While the Tigers have an overabundance of choices at QB, they will be looking for one of the three candidates to emerge as the clear-cut starter. Whichever player steps up and fills this position will have a great stable of weapons at their disposal, including wide receivers Jermaine McKenzie and Marcus Ricker, and running back Lance Smith. The defense for the Tigers is strong up front with linebacker Jamon Hughes and defensive linemen Dontari Poe and Winston Bowens, and if ball-hawking free safety Marcus Ball can impress the NFL scouts this season the way he plans to, this defense could strike fear into a lot of opponents. This should be an exciting team to watch, so now is the time to buy Memphis football tickets.

The Memphis Tigers schedule will offer a lot of tests for this team in transition, and a late non-conference game at home against in-state rival Tennessee on November 6th will be the perfect chance for Memphis to show the college football world the progress they have made. Other exciting home games on the schedule include an October 2nd date at home versus Tulsa, an October 30th game at home versus conference favorite Houston, and the final game of the season on November 27th at home versus UCF. Memphis Tigers tickets will go quickly this year, as this transition into a new era is an exciting time for fans.
