"The Memphis Tigers took a big step toward asserting themselves as a contender for the College Football Playoff on Saturday, taking down the Arkansas Razorbacks 32-31. And although their on-field statement was a serious one, the Tigers also added a more playful swing on social media after the game. Once the victory was sealed, Memphis took to X to post the final score ... and take a shot at Arkansas in the process."
"McAlister posted eight catches for 254 yards and three touchdowns in the win. The Horned Frogs' social media team came ready to troll their rivals, offering an assortment of jabs following the game. There was the TCU staple, a high-octane video montage of absurdist clips and sounds. There was the resurfacing of an old tweet by Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson, with the Fort Worth-based Horned Frogs stating their pride in being "DFW's college football team.""
Memphis defeated Arkansas 32-31 and then used social media to taunt the Razorbacks, posting a final-score graphic captioned "Smoked em" and a graphic of a tiger biting a razorback. The post appeared on X and leaned into playful rivalry imagery. Other schools joined in postgame trolling across Week 4. TCU beat SMU 35-24 behind Eric McAlister's eight catches for 254 yards and three touchdowns, and TCU's social team posted a high-energy montage, resurfaced a mayoral tweet asserting local pride and quoted a coach's Super Bowl halftime complaint with a light show spelling "game over."
