Analysis: The Tigers are pretty much in the middle of the rankings, and they schedule pretty consistently. They’re getting slightly easier in all categories though. Their usual schedule consists of a above average BCS team, an average BCS team, a below average non-BCS team, and a I-AA team.

Fact: 30 of Memphis’ 40 opponents are just five teams – Arkansas State, I-AA Chattanooga, Mississippi, Mississippi State, and Tennessee, (and all but two of their opponents with votes came from those three SEC schools).

Fact: The furthest north Memphis has traveled to play an opponent was in 1998 when they played Minnesota. The second furthest north? Missouri in 1999.

2008 Outlook: Mid-range for 2008, but it probably looks tougher on paper than in person. @ Mississippi will be tricky, and hosting Louisville probably won’t be too easy, but I-AA Arkansas State and I-AA Nicholls State are cupcakes.
