Welcome to another week of the Memphis Football Podcast! Columnist Mark Giannotto and football beat writer Evan Barnes take you through a busy week for the Tigers facing SMU (2:30 p.m., ESPN2) on Saturday.
The guys react to Memphis' 59-0 win over North Alabama but spend more time breaking down Memphis athletic Laird Veatch's email asking donors to contribute more to name, image and likeness funds for Tigers players. Is it a sign of the Tigers' athletic department state of affairs or just part of the new era for Memphis trying to remain competitive as well as maintain and attract players to the school.
This week's special guest is Joseph Hoyt, who covers SMU football for the Dallas Morning News. Joseph breaks down how SMU has been in a wild season with scoring and allowing plenty of points and also how the Mustangs have two NIL collectives that aren't shy about paying players. He also breaks down the prolific SMU senior tandem of quarterback Tanner Mordecai and receiver Rashee Rice, who leads the nation in receiving yards.
Mark and Evan also offer their thoughts on the Tigers' latest bowl projections, Memphis-SMU and what a Memphis win would mean to end the regular season. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone, and thank you for listening to the Tigers Football Podcast this season.
