Welcome back to another week of the Memphis football podcast! Columnist Mark Giannotto and beat writer Evan Barnes are well rested just like the Tigers after an open week and they break down Saturday's matchup hosting No. 25 Central Florida (2:30 p.m., ESPN2)

The guys break down UCF's strengths and why Memphis (4-4, 2-3 AAC) can score an upset based on recent history hosting ranked opponents. They also tackle how important this game is for the rest of the season with the Tigers chasing bowl eligibility, the program struggling to maintain interest, and the louder speculation surrounding coach Ryan Silverfield's future.

This week's special guest is Jason Beede, who covers UCF (6-2, 3-1) for the Orlando Sentinel. Jason updates on UCF quarterback John Rhys Plumlee, who was injured in the Knights' win over Cincinnati, and what Memphis should expect if the Knights play backup quarterback Mikey Keene. He also discusses how the Knights' run game/defense have carried them to a strong second season under coach Gus Malzahn.

Finally, Mark and Evan predict how Memphis can beat UCF by identifying one thing the Tigers need to do on Saturday.
