Posted this and my comments on Hogville so thought I would share.

What's Going To Happen
Arkansas State is slowly getting better under Butch Jones.

The defense can get behind the line, and the offense isn't turning it over and creating a slew of problems. This isn't going to be a pushover team like it's been over the last few years.

Memphis will have just a little more offense in the second half, the running game that wasn't there against Navy will work, and it'll be an interesting fight that will still be competitive into the fourth quarter.

Think it should be a higher Must See rating.

Other than the end of the first half and start of the third quarter against Ohio St, not sure of the basis for their "For all of the issues early on, the Red Wolves have kept the ball for close to 37 minutes. But ..." comment.

Can't disagree with Memphis being picked to win, and while my initial thinking was A-State might cover the spread, now thinking if they get that close they have a good chance of winning.

Not sure Memphis is as good as people think, absolutely certain A-State is better.

Other than they are better than last year, not sure where A-States defense is going into the is game, but as long as QB James Blackman is healthy their offense is going to create a lot of problems for all its remaining opponents. More than most can handle in fact.

While it is to early to say if they are the best team left on their schedule, 247 says Memphis is the most talented team. Should give A-State fans a better feel of what to expect going forward than Grambling or Ohio St.
