The Memphis Tigers have scheduled a home-and-home football series with Troy plus added four FCS teams to their future schedules, Memphis’ official athletics website indicates.
Memphis and the Troy Trojans will play a home-and-home football series in 2024 and 2025. The two schools will meet at Liberty Memorial Stadium in Memphis, Tennessee on Sept. 7, 2024 and then at Veterans Memorial Stadium in Troy, Alabama on Sept. 13, 2025.
Memphis and Troy have met five times on the gridiron in consecutive seasons from 1937 to 1941. Troy won the first meeting, but Memphis took the next four games and leads the series 4-1.
The Memphis Tigers have also added four FCS opponents to their future football schedules, which tentatively completes their non-conference schedule through the 2022 season. Memphis will host Southern on Sept. 7, 2019, UT Martin on Sept. 19, 2020, Northern Colorado on Sept. 4, 2021, and North Alabama on Oct. 1, 2022.
The Tigers are 2-1 against UT Martin and have never faced Southern, Northern Colorado, and North Alabama. North Alabama has moved up from Division II to the Football Championship Subdivision and will join the Big South Conference in 2019.
