Welcome back to an exciting Tigers football podcast! There was much to say after Memphis defeated Mississippi Stateand we cover it all plus more in a lengthy episode.

Commercial Appeal columnist Mark Giannotto and football beat writer Evan Barnes discuss all the highs from Saturday, including Calvin Austin III's insane punt-return touchdown and the reaction from the SEC. They also discuss the key moments of the Tigers' win and where things stand after a 3-0 start.

The duo also look over the AAC landscape and how the Tigers stack up to their conference peers. Finally, they discuss Saturday's game with Texas-San Antonio (2:30 p.m., ESPNU) and why the Roadrunners are a classic "trap game" opponent.
