STAND UP MEMPHIS & TAKE A BOW!
"It was the largest crowd to see a Tiger game since 2006 and the eighth-largest crowd to see a non-SEC opponent."
Memphis head coach Justin Fuente said he appreciated all of the fan support and credited them with making the Liberty Bowl a hostile environment.
"I felt like we as a Tiger nation showed up tonight to help us win," Fuente said. "And they helped us win.
"I'm awfully proud of that and appreciative of that."
This is a tremendous statement made by the city! As Memphis football is trending upward!
Proud to be a Tiger fan right now!

RE: STAND UP MEMPHIS & TAKE A BOW!
This reminds me of a story my dad used to tell me. His grandpa told him that he would give him a dollar if he was able to pick 100# of cotton. When he did his grandpa told him that now that he knows that he can do it he would get his ass whooped if he does do it every day.
In other words if we can draw that for one game there is no excuse for not doing it every game.
