After a school-record 12 wins and an AAC Championship last year, the Memphis Tigers are hoping that the transition to the Ryan Silverfield Era goes smoothly during an unpredictable 2020 season.

Their 2020 TV schedule isn’t completely finalized, but based on last year, Memphis games will likely be broadcast on ABC, ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU or CBS Sports Network.

Games on ABC can be watched for free without cable via the ESPN app, and you can watch a live stream of all the other games via a cable-free, live-TV streaming service, such as FuboTV, Hulu With Live TV, Sling TV or Vidgo.

You can read on for a complete rundown of all those services, and a guide on how to watch Memphis football games online without cable:

It’s a little more expensive than most other streaming services, but it’s worth it. Considering all the channels and features, FuboTV is ultimately still very good value for the money.

        Memphis Football Preview 2020

        The Ryan Silverfield era begins for the Tigers this season after four years as the team’s offensive line coach. Technically, Silverfield took over coaching duties for Mike Norvell in last December’s Cotton Bowl appearance, but this will be the start of his first regular season leading this group. He’ll have many familiar faces surrounding him, coupled with several unique challenges.

        Last year, quarterback Brady White had a solid campaign, throwing for 4,014 yards, 33 touchdowns and 11 interceptions. White returns for his final season, and he’ll also have his favorite target in Damonte Coxie, returning, as well. Coxie, whose 76 receptions led the team last year, also had 1,276 yards and nine touchdowns, and Silverfield said a few weeks into practices that he likes what he’s seeing from that particular connection.

        “I think Damonte Coxie has continued to make plays all camp, and him and Brady White have a great connection, which is good to see,” Silverfield said. “We let Rodrigues Clark carry a lot of the heavy load because we’re excited about him, and I really like our veteran linebacker core. We’ve got a good mix of guys in there, and it’s exciting to see them shine. I expect big things from them all season.”

        The team will be without one of its best offensive players, however. Running back Kenneth Gainwell, who ran for 1,459 yards and 13 touchdowns on 231 carries (that’s 6.3 yards per carry), while also catching 51 passes out of the backfield for 610 yards and three touchdowns, has decided to opt out of the 2020 season. It will be a huge loss for Silverfield’s offense. With Gainwell gone, the workload in the backfield will fall to the duo of Kylan Watkins and Asa Martin.

        On defense, Memphis allowed 26.4 points a game last season, which was 58th out of 130 teams. They’ll see their sack leader from last season, Joseph Dorceus, Sr., return, however, so they shouldn’t see too much of a drop off on the line.

        After the Tigers held their second scrimmage prior to the start of the season, Silverfield shared the good news and the bad news with the media.

        “We’re two weeks away from our first game against a great opponent, and there are a lot of things we need to clean up. I told our guys the bad news is that we’re not ready, but we’re going to continue to get better and prepare for our first game. The good news is we have time, and we need to have a sense of urgency. Our guys have the right mindset, but we have to continue to work,” Silverfield said.

        With Gainwell opting out, his offense may have to work harder than ever.
