The Memphis Tigers football team is currently tied for second place in the American Conference standings with just three games remaining.
Memphis coach Charles Huff has a chance to potentially lead the Tigers (7-2, 4-1 American) to their first conference championship berth since 2019 in his first year at the helm. He’ll have to first coach the Tigers to a victory against the South Florida Bulls to keep that hope alive.
USF (6-3, 2-3) will play host for a Thursday night kickoff at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida (7 p.m., ESPN). The Tigers were off last week, but South Florida lost 20-17 last Friday to the same East Carolina team Memphis beat in overtime.
