After not recognizing South Florida in this space for a few weeks, fans started to come out of the woodwork on Twitter and in our comments about the oversight. Not so vocal? Memphis fans, and quite frankly we’re surprised.
Memphis is 4-1 and shut down Temple over the weekend, 34-27, with some 2nd-half heroics. After falling behind early to a middling AAC team, the Tigers kicked a field goal to end the first half. This was their first score of the game— making it 13-3— but it was the first of what would turn out to be 27 unanswered points.
