Welcome to another week of the Memphis Football Podcast! Columnist Mark Giannotto and football beat writer Evan Barnes take stock of Memphis' regular season after the Tigers went 6-6.

The guys addressed this week's big news that coach Ryan Silverfield will return for a fourth season. They break down why it's not surprising but also what it means for 2023 and his future. Will Silverfield win back fans who've turned on the program? How much does Memphis need to win to secure his future?

Mark and Evan also discuss bowl game projections ahead of Sunday's bowl selection show. The Independence and Frisco Bowl representatives being present at Memphis' loss to SMU serve as a reminder that the AAC will likely pit the Tigers against a non-Power Five opponent.

Finally, the guys look ahead to what changes might come this offseason. The transfer portal opens on Dec. 5 so how important will it be for Memphis to keep certain players? What are priorities for them to look for in the portal? How will Memphis replace key seniors who've exhausted their eligibility?
