MEMPHIS, Tenn. — The Dec. 12 game between Memphis and Houston will now kickoff at 2:45 p.m. CT from Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium and will be televised on ESPN2.
Memphis (6-3, 4-3 American Athletic Conference) was initially set to play Houston (3-3, 3-2) in September, but the game has since been rescheduled by the AAC twice due to positive COVID-19 cases. The matchup will serve as the regular-season finale for both teams.
The Tigers have won the last four meetings with the Cougars and are 13-15 in the all-time series. Memphis won 45-27 last season in Houston.
The Cougars have not played since a Nov. 14 win over USF. They will be Memphis' fifth conference opponent this season and sixth overall that has had at least one week off prior to playing the Tigers.
