Memphis football prepares for Boise State after opening season with two wins

Memphis holds a 2-0 record following victories over UNLV and Arkansas State to begin the season. Despite the undefeated start, head coach Charles Huff highlighted the need for more consistent play as the team prepares for a September 12 road matchup against Boise State. The Tigers have excelled in the second half, outscoring opponents 41-14, but have struggled to maintain efficiency during opening quarters. The passing game remains an area of focus for quarterback Marcus Stokes after a two-interception performance last week. Defensively, the team has relied on a strong pass rush and secondary coverage, though the coaching staff aims for both units to peak simultaneously. Memphis enters the upcoming contest as a 7.5-point underdog against a Broncos team that recently challenged Oregon.
