The Cotton is a better bowl than Citrus or Outback or Gator, and Memphis is a damn good team. It'd be a hell of a game. Memphis has gained enough respect nationally that no one would look at it as an inferior game. Unlike some past years where a mid-major got ranked for beating 12 nobodies, I think Memphis has earned their ranking and could beat more Power 5 teams than we'd probably be comfortable with.
I get where you're coming from but we'd get no credit for beating Memphis. Everyone is going to say "yeah Memphis, great team" but nobody will consider Auburn beating them to be significant and will absolutely act like it's a giant-killing win if Memphis were to beat Auburn.
It's inferior in every way. Minnesota is somewhat similar.

Most years I'd like the opportunity to beat a good team, but I am of the opinion that we simply need the win and the ability to say we have gone 10-4, 8-5 and 10-3 on the recruiting trail. I don't care how easy the game is or how it is perceived...we need to win.
