It definitely isn't my blood pressure, man. Honestly, I have no problem with Memphis. I'm even working on my Master at UM. I think they have a pretty good team this year, although I still personally think UT would win head to head.

However, I can be at a bar peacefully watching a game and Memphis fans will start trash talking me for no reason. It definitely isn't very friendly trash talk either. I don't even have to be talking to them either. I just laugh it off, but it's really annoying when I just want to enjoy the UT game. I know this hasn't only been my experience when other UT fans tell me about it happening to them. Obviously that doesn't account for most of their fans, as every fan base has those fans, but yeah, I've heard more trash talk in the past four months from Memphis fans than from anyone I know from Alabama or Florida.

I've lived in memphis my whole life.. Know quite a few memphis fans... Basically don't like UT because of them being historically bad in football and UT being historically good. And only beating UT once. Just plain jealousy l. And I believe it's the majority of their fan base and not the minority. It's kind of like if you are a memphis fan you have to hate UT and Ole Miss. We even have a winning record against them in basketball and they cant stand it

How do y'all think the Memphis-Temple game will go? I think Memphis edges out Temple in a close game and stops the bleeding after losing two in a row.

I remember when we played Memphis in basketball a few years ago as #2 against Memphis #1. Prior to the game tigger fans were out in force. After the game Beale was still full bbut all in Bbig Orange. I swear it seemed like thhey all had Orange on under their blue and pulled off their blue post game. LOL loved it
