MEMPHIS (1-0) at No. 11 UCLA (1-0), 10 p.m. (Pac-12 Networks)

Line: UCLA by 24.

Series Record: First meeting

USC is so good they will beat both of these teams by 24.

On a serious note, I'm a little annoyed that I won't get this game.

Ha, I didn't notice their typo when I posted it. Being on the east coast, I don't get the PAC-12 network either. Though it'll be easy enough to find a stream for it.

Memphis fans don't get it either. We will have to stream it. I'm excited to see how we do, and I think this game will be closer then people think. Take the points!

I am seriously considering Memphis and the points. UVA isn't that good and UCLA didn't look like a top 4 team. Lets go tigers!

UCLA wins by three TDs.

If I was a betting man, I'd be tempted to take the points. UCLA's offense is weak, and our D is pretty dang good. The issue is how many times their unreal D scores on us. They got 3 TDs on UVA.

A better question is how good is your quarterback at protecting the ball?

That's the same question from the other end of the play (Karam threw more INTs than TDs in his RS fteshman year). But maybe even more pertinent is whether our WRs and RBs hold onto the ball.

We fumbled a lot against Austin Peay in the opener. A whole lot. Got most of them back. If we do that against UCLA it could get ugly. Hold onto the ball, and I think it could be a good game.

Then that is not good. UCLA plays for the strips. Maybe your guys should just forget about the YAC and just hit the dirt after catches.

UCLA didn't look spectacular against UVA. If this Memphis team is as good as Tiger fans say....well...who knows, right? Go Memphis.

That's the same question from the other end of the play (Lynch threw more INTs than TDs in his RS freshman year). But maybe even more pertinent is whether our WRs and RBs hold onto the ball.

I don't know about the points in this one, because Hundley can look awful in one game and great in the next game. Hell I have seen him look awful on one play and great on the next play. So he would be too streaky for me to feel comfortable about ever placing a bet on a game that he is in. You just can't predict how he is going to play.

Two team parlay......Memphis and MTSU. You can thank me later.

We have a very good dline and a solid secondary.

We fumbled a lot last game but the weather was horrible. Take for what it's worth.
