Episode Details

Head coach Charles Huff calls this weekend’s showdown against Arkansas State the “Paint Bucket Bowl,” brimming with respect and intensity as he prepares his team for a crucial home opener. With seniors playing their final home game and facing a seasoned opponent led by Butch Jones, Huff insists the Tigers are treating it like any other high-stakes matchup — no easy wins, just relentless focus. Marcus Stokes echoed that mindset, acknowledging Arkansas State’s physicality while reflecting on his own growth and the offense’s potential to elevate performance. After a gritty comeback win last time out, the Tigers are hungry to build momentum — especially as they debut in the newly renovated Simmons Bank Liberty Stadium. Kickoff is Saturday at 6 PM on ESPN+, as Memphis aims for a 2-0 start and a historic season opener.
