“Obviously, what Army represents not only as an athletic program, but what they represent in this country, it’s an honor to stand on the other sideline and coach against them,” University of Memphis coach Charles Huff said. (Patrick Lantrip/The Daily Memphian file)
The American Conference standings are getting crowded, which is why Saturday night’s Halloween matchup between Memphis and Army is so important.
The game will kick off at 7 p.m. on ESPNU at Simmons Bank Liberty Stadium. Memphis (6-2, 3-1 American) and Army (5-2, 4-1) are trying to stay alive in the race.
If Memphis doesn’t prevail against Army, that will likely be enough to shut the door on the Tigers’ conference championship hopes.
