Quote:Memphis and Temple have played five times since both programs joined the American Athletic Conference in 2013. The Owls hold a 3-2 series advantage, including a 30-28 victory last season in Philadelphia. Memphis defeated Temple 34-27 in 2016, the last time the two teams met at the Liberty Bowl. Three of their five meetings have been decided by seven points or less.

The Tigers (1-1, 0-1 The American) are playing host to UCF in a game presented by FedEx this Saturday after a bye week. The Owls played their first game of the season last Saturday, a 31-29 loss at Navy, and will host USF this Saturday.

How in the hell is this game not televised (ESPN+)?

Makes no sense.

Don’t we have a contract to have our games on an ESPN channel? Or is that only like the top four current teams in the conference?

ESPN says it will be ESPN+.

We only had one non-televised game last year and it was the FCS game.

Which has more or less been the case since 2016.

There are fewer games this season too. Makes no sense.

Looks like ESPN2 is showing something non-CFB in that spot on that Saturday. Also with this packed schedule, fewer bye weeks for teams and the Big 10 starts that weekend.
