Why Memphis Will Win

This might not be the high-flying fun show of normal Memphis teams over the last several years, but it’s still explosive, the passing game is still bombing way on a consistent basis, and there’s help from the defensive side, too.

The Tigers were hit by the Navy run-only offense in last week’s 10-7 win, but for the most part, the run D has been strong. There hasn’t been a whole lot of pressure from the defensive front, but there’s been enough from the offense to overcome the occasional defensive issues.

Week 14 College Schedule

Why Tulane Will Win

There’s just enough of a passing game to give Memphis a few problems.

It’s about running the ball for the Green Wave, and it’s been doing that well enough to keep hammering away – more like running around – the Tiger D. The Green Wave have hit the 200-yard mark in three of the last four games and six times on the season, and it’s going to keep on pushing.

The team is good at owning the turnover margin, and that partly comes from all the pressure from the defensive front. Unlike Memphis, Tulane is outstanding at generating big plays behind the line on a regular basis.

CFN Experts Picks: College

What’s Going To Happen

Memphis has been forgotten about in the AAC with Cincinnati taking center stage and UCF being a whole lot of fun, but its only tough loss was a blowout to the Bearcats. The other loss was a 30-27 fight at SMU early on, and everything has worked fine since then.

Tulane will play well enough at home to stick around for a full four quarters, and the running game will work, but the team won’t be consistent enough. The Memphis passing game will hit Tulane for over 300 yards as it keeps on pushing and answering every good moment for the other side.

Why Memphis Will Win

The punting game is outstanding.

Memphis might be known for its high-powered offense that’s second in the AAC and tenth in the nation in total offense – it has the balance and versatility to do a little of anything it needs to do – but in a game like this, being able to tilt the field is a huge deal.

The run defense has enough good parts to handle the one-dimensional Midshipmen without getting rolled over, but it’s Adam Williams who needs to be the real star. The junior averages 44 yards per kick for the AAC’s best punting game, and Navy is just okay at returning kicks.

Memphis can score immediately. Navy has to be methodical.

Why Navy Will Win

Too many teams don’t commit to the run against Memphis because they can’t. Either they can’t do it well enough, or the game gets out of hand and they have to get throwing to keep up.

Even with the Tiger offense rocking and rolling, the defense keeps having problems putting games away. It’s getting the job done, but the D is one of the worst in the conference allowing 477 yards per game – and that’s after having no problems with the anemic USF and Stephen F. Austin offenses over the last few weeks.

The Navy offense isn’t just about running now – it’s been able to throw for over 200 yards in each of the last two games and it’s showing more balance than it had in years, but …

What’s Going To Happen

Navy doesn’t have the horses.

The program rocks and rolls when the running game is crushing everyone, and it’s not. It’s okay, but it’s not coming up with enough big plays and it’s not dominating the time of possession battle.

Navy is 3-0 this year when it runs for 200 yards, and 0-4 when it doesn’t. For all of the problems on the Memphis D, the run defense hasn’t been all that bad. It had issues with the Cincinnati ground game, but everyone does.

No one else has hit 200 on the Tigers.

Memphis (4-2) vs Stephen F. Austin (6-3) Game Preview

For latest lines and to bet on the NFL, go to BetMGM


Why Stephen F. Austin Will Win

The Lumberjacks are on fire.

After dropping the first three games on the road to FBS teams, they’ve ripped through their last six against the FCSers, with Trae Self and the passing game rolling with a whole slew of big plays. The D is doing its part, holding teams to seven points or fewer in each of the last three games and four of the last six.

The Lumberjack run defense isn’t a rock, but it has done a better job of holding up. Now it gets a Tiger ground game that all of a sudden stopped, failing to hit 100 yards in either of its last two games after doing a great job in the first month. But …

Why Memphis Will Win

Yeah, there’s a difference between beating up on the FCS world and beating the FBS teams. It’s not like SFA was losing to Alabama and Clemson, getting dropped by UTEP, UTSA and SMU. Not only did the Lumberjacks lose, but they failed to come within double-digits in any of the three games and got trucked by SMU 50-7.

Here’s where the Memphis passing game gets to eat … again.

Yeah, the running game hasn’t been great over the last few weeks, but the offense was busy throwing for 437 yards in the win over USF to make it four straight games with over 300 yards and over 280 in all six.

What’s Going To Happen

Stephen F. Austin will be plucky, and it’ll put up some points against the mediocre Memphis defense, but Brady White and the passing game will have this put away by halftime.

For latest lines and to bet on college football, go to BetMGM


Why Memphis Will Win

Score just a little bit and it should be enough.

USF has been better at times, and the offense was able to push East Carolina and Temple, but the overall talent and pop aren’t there to keep up if Memphis goes Memphis.

The Tigers were stuffed by Cincinnati last week and the still mangled 316 passing yards. USF gives up yards however you want to take them. It has given up 200 rushing yards or more for times in the six games and has been awful in the secondary over the last three games.

Why USF Will Win

Can the Bulls take the ball away enough to matter?

The didn’t generate a takeaway in the first two games, and then the team started to get more aggressive and forced a ton of mistakes with 13 takeaways in the last four games.

The defense all the way around hasn’t been strong enough, but the secondary hasn’t been bad at times. It needs to generate just enough third down stops to keep the game from getting out of hand, and the line has to generate the type of pressure that Cincinnati did last week to stuff Memphis for just five yards on the ground.

What’s Going To Happen

Memphis will quickly bounce back from debacle against the Bearcats. The team is 3-0 at home, 0-2 on the road, and now it gets to enjoy the Liberty Bowl again.

Yeah, USF managed to come up with two more more takeaways in the last four games, and they still lost three of the dates by double-digits.

The Tigers will get up fast, USF will start making mistakes, and it’ll all spiral out of control from there.

For latest lines and to bet on college football, go to BetMGM


Why Cincinnati Will Win

The team does what it does, it does it very well, and then, it moves on.

So SMU has a high-powered offense and came into last week’s game on a roll? Cincinnati has a strong running game, a nasty defense, and it’s doing most of the little things right.

The pass defense isn’t a rock, but it doesn’t allow a whole lot of big things down the field – just one touchdown pass given up with eight picks – and the offense keeps finding ways to get the job done.

This isn’t necessarily a high-powered attack, but it all clicked against the Mustangs with QB Desmond Ridder running for 179 of the team’s 313 yards on the ground. Memphis has an okay run defense so far, but no one has tried pounding away quite like the Bearcats will.

Memphis allows over 260 yards of total offense per game more than the Bearcats do, but …

Why Memphis Will Win

The Tiger offense is humming.

It hasn’t seen anything quite like the Cincinnati defense yet – the Bearcat secondary and tough play up front will be a problem – but it has the diverse offense that can take what SMU wanted to do last week and ramp it up.

Memphis is getting a huge year out of QB Brady White, the running game is grinding just fine – even if it’s not the home-run hitting thrill show of the last few years – and there aren’t enough turnovers to be that big a problem.

The Tigers have to get up early. Cincinnati has an offense, but it’s not quite the shootout type of team Memphis is. Take UC out of its comfort zone and make it press, but …

What’s Going To Happen

No one has been able to do that yet. No one has been able to knock Cincinnati off of its game.

Memphis will get its shots in, but after losing twice last year – including in the AAC Championship – and dropping five straight going back to 2013, don’t think this doesn’t really, really matter to the Bearcat program.

The UC running game will control the tempo and the clock with answers for every Memphis score that will seem like a momentum-changer.

The Tiger lines are good. The Bearcat lines are better.
