It also would have been the first opportunity for most Memphis fans to see the progress made on renovations to Simmons Bank Liberty Stadium. Those renovations have been ongoing for years but are set to be completed before the start of the 2026 season.
Memphis will go into the 2026 season with an almost entirely new roster. Huff has brought in dozens of transfers, and the Tigers will have new starters at most positions. That includes quarterback, where West Florida transfer Marcus Stokes and South Carolina transfer Air Noland are competing for the starting job.
