UCF @ Memphis 3:30pm on ABC (10/17)

Shelby County Health Dept just revised their guidelines and are allowing bars and restaurants to remain open until midnight and decreased the seating separation inside LBS from 12' to 6'. this will allow capacity to increase from 4500 to 12,000 beginning with the UCF game on 10/17

Well that's good news. Hopefully in another month it will decrease from 6' to 3'.

Good thing it wasn't today on 10/10. Hurricane Delta is running through Memphis today. It's been downgraded to a Tropical Storm after reaching land, but the forecast is 2.5" of rain today with wind gusts up to 35mph. As if football couldn't already get sloppy enough this season.

Yeah, my Tigers played in a hurricane (maybe tropical storm) several years ago. I sat there in the rain for that one. Not a pleasant environment.

Rooting for UCF in this one

The current forecast is sunny & 66° for the game

Pretty sure that was the home opener against LA Monroe in 2017 in a Monsoon. I was right there with you in the LB cheering on my Tigers getting pelted by rain for nearly 4 hours.

For the first time since mid-August, the U.S. has recorded its third consecutive day of more than 50,000 new COVID-19 cases as forecasters predict a death total as high as 233,000 by the end of the month.

Its gonna be a bloodbath. Ruin silverfield will pamper this team to 4 losses minimum.

I sure hope we don't get rid of a live Tiger. That's our tradition!

I enjoyed this preview of the game. Gives a nice run down of what to watch for both teams...

Thanks, that was a good read.

Where's the thread for "The last time Memphis beat UCF..."?

now that we know Memphis played SMU without having any contact in practice and only meeting in position groups in basically a month, it will be interesting to see how they look with a couple of real weeks of full practice under their belts

30 years ago...

...beware Knights its 2020.

Well, I don't know how we accomplish anything in 2020. UCF you're always welcome to Memphis.

Current forecast high of 68 degrees and low of 51 degrees with 0% precipitaion and sunny skies. Wouldn't hurt to bring an extra layer to peel off if early tailgating. Friday's high is 63 and low is 39...if you are you are spending the night Friday, bring a coat, lol.
