Why Memphis does or doesn't make sense with Pac-12 expanding after crumbling

The Memphis football team is 3-0 after beating Florida State last weekend.

Coach Ryan Silverfield called the win "monumental" on Saturday, and he reiterated that Monday.

"Obviously a great and historic win for our program and its history," he said. "Proud of the guys and the way they fought. It was a team win."

But what does it mean in terms of the College Football Playoff outlook for No. 23 Memphis?

Tigers football beat writer Jonah Dylan and Tigers basketball beat writer Jason Munz examine that subject on this week's Tiger Football Podcast. Dylan and Munz also dive into the Pac-12 expansion discussion, touch on linebacker Elijah Herring's status, and preview Memphis' upcoming road game at Navy.
