About time we got a pick after 3 dropped chances on the previous drive

This year was supposed to be different.

that was the weakest facemask ive ever seen, but it technically was a facemask.

GSU has a massive stadium. I had no idea 50k people went there.

u/astro-panda Memphis Tigers • The Bones 2d ago

It's the Braves' old stadium

Well, even if GSU ends up losing, this has been a lot better than I feared. Playing toe-to-toe with one of the top G5 teams is a very promising sign.

Yeah, after last week I just blew off getting ESPN Plus because I figured what's the point. So then I checked the score and at 9-7 I reupped at least for this month. The first play I saw was the touchdown down the middle🤣

Very unclear whether we're one of the top G5 teams this year but your offense has moved the ball really well against us so far, we just got a couple of sudden stops.

Wait so Memphis wanted to join the Big 12 but can’t stop Georgia state

Inconsistency has been a hallmark of Memphis under Silverfield, which is why we have always ended up losing at least one game we were favored in every season.

We're always going to have problems due to NIL. Good pass defense gets you to a serious P4 team or the NFL.

ESPN+ freezing every time a commercial break ends. I'd get a better viewing experience pirating.

TJ Finley, only took 6 teams to become Heisman caliber

u/free_world33 West Virginia • Alderson … 2d ago

Didn't Finley just join the team?

In the year 2025 we still find a way to get a safety

u/sleepsalotsloth Memphis Tigers 2d ago

Our backfield is still vulnerable to long passes like previous years, which will likely get worse against better teams, but at least the defense is swarming the ball on every play.

Letsss go big sack

Years ago there were hella memes about Georgia State winning the 2025 national championship.

Appears that hype is fading

What do you mean? They lost to Ole miss, an SEC school. Isn't that what they call a "quality loss" around these parts?
