Five things to watch for in Birmingham Bowl between Memphis and Auburn

The match-up between the Auburn Tigers and Memphis Tigers on December 30 in the Birmingham Bowl comes with much intrigue for both teams. Memphis will be without their former head coach, Justin Fuente, who is now the coach for Virginia Tech, and Auburn will be without its former defensive coordinator, Will Muschamp, who is now the head coach at South Carolina.

The Tigers of Memphis started the season on fire winning their first eight games, including a stunning upset at home over Ole Miss. Then the wheels started to fall off after they were beaten by Navy 45-20.
