1. We should play Memphis every year for the exposure it would give us;
2. Losing to Memphis and teams like them was in the past, and those who didn't want to play them were chicken;
3. That we needed to upgrade our out of conference schedule since we were now an elite power, and it was no longer enough to play in the western division of the SEC;
4. That we old timers who opposed playing them were lost in ancient history, which no longer applied, since we now far outclassed teams like Memphis;
CONGRATULATIONS, you started proving your wisdom yesterday, and have years yet to further demonstrate it.
And to those Uber geniuses who also wanted to get Southern Miss on our schedule, God save us from any further such wisdom from such wise men.
