THIS YEAR’SEARLIER MEETING

Memphis 77 • Marshall 61Jan. 27, 2010 • Huntington, W.Va.

SeniorWillColemanpostedhisfirstdouble-doubleof the season (19 points, 11 rebounds), and Memphis scored 48 points in the paint as the Tigers never trailed in a 77-61 Conference USA victory over Marshall at Fe-dExForum. After the Tigers jumped out to an early 8-2 advan-tage, the Thundering Herd battled back to tie the game at 15-all on a Dago Pena trey. A nifty layup by Anto-nio Barton and a triple from Charles Carmouche on the ensuing Memphis possessions sparked a 20-0 run as Memphis extended its lead to 35-15 at the 6:03 mark. The Tigers shot 17-of-27 (63 percent) from the floor and heldMarshall to just 26.9 percent shootingin the opening half, while dominating the Thundering Herd on the glass 21-12.

Cancer® Sneakers awareness weekend Jan. 28-30 in demonstrating support for the American Cancer Society and its vision of a world with less cancer and more birthdays. Basketball fans are encouraged to also wear sneakers to games that weekend to show their support. This is the seventh-annual Coaches vs. Cancer® Sneakers awareness weekend. Coaches vs. Cancer is a collaborative initiative of the American Cancer Society and the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) that empowers coaches, their teams and local communi-tiestomakeadifferenceinthefightagainstcancer. Thanks to the dedicated efforts of college and high school coaches and fans throughout the nation, Coaches vs. Cancer participants have raised more than $60 million since 1993 to help the American Cancer Society fund groundbreaking cancer re-search, provide up-to-date cancer information and education, advocate for public health policies that benefit communities, anddeliver services that im-prove the quality of life for patients and their fami-lies. Additional information is available at coaches-vscancer.org.

IT’S THE SECOND TIME AROUND THE FIRST TIME For the first time since Conference USA re-aligned for the 2005-06 year, Memphis and Mar-shall play twice in regular season action. The two squads have already met one time this season, and the Tigers posted a 77-61 victory over the Thunder-ing Herd on Jan. 15 in Memphis. The Memphis-Marshall twice-a-season meet-ings are new to the league in 2010-11 as Conference

USA went to a different scheduling format. However,2010-11isnotthefirsttimetheTigersand Thundering Herd played twice in a season. In the 2006-07 campaign, the teams played a regular season game in Memphis (78-59 Tigers win) and then met in the Conference USA Tournament at Fe-dExForum (92-71 Memphis win).

COULD IT BE DEJA VU? Well, on one hand, the Tigers would like it to be because they got the victory last time. But, on the otherhand,Memphishadtobattle,fightandclawtoget that win. We’re talking about the Memphis-Marshallclash in 2005-06. But, a couple of weeks before that meeting, the Thundering Herd pulled an upset, defeating in-state rival and No. 9 nationally-ranked West Virginia 58-52 in Charleston, W.Va., on Jan. 25, 2006. Then, 16 days later on Feb. 11, 2006, Memphis played before a sellout crowd in Hun-tington and fell behind to Marshall by 11 points in thefirsthalf.Thehometeamhelda leaduntil the16-minute mark of the second half, before a 15-0 run gave the Tigers the lead for good en route to a hard-fought 91-81 win. Now, fast-forward to this season. On Jan. 19, 2011, Marshall met its in-state rival West Virginia in Charleston, and the Thundering Herd defeated the No. 21 Mountaineers 75-71 for the upset win. This Saturday, the Tigers travel to Huntington just 10 days after that huge Marshall win.

IF THERE IS AN ADVANTAGE... For Memphis, it may come on the defensive end in blocked shots and steals. The Tigers are second in Conference USA in blocked shots (5.4 bpg) and firstintheleagueinsteals(9.6spg).TheThunderingHerdarefifthinblocks(4.2bpg)and11thinsteals(5.3 spg). On the Marshall side, the advantage it will at-tempt to exploit is on the glass. The Thundering Herd are fourth in C-USA in rebounding margin at +4.1 (38.7-34.6). The Tigers are eight at +1.2 (36.7-35.5).

BARTON NAMED C-USA FRESHMEN OF WEEK JAN. 24 Will Barton was named Conference USA Freshman of the Week for Jan. 17-23, the league of-ficeannouncedJan.24.BartonisthefourthdifferentTiger freshman to receive the weekly honor, and it is thefifthtimethisseasontheC-USAFreshmanoftheWeek award resides in Memphis. The other Tigers to earn C-USA Freshman of the Week distinction were Antonio Barton on Nov. 15 and Jan. 3, Chris Crawford on Dec. 20 and Joe Jackson on Dec. 27. InMemphis’ twoConferenceUSA roadwinsat Southern Miss and UAB, Barton averaged 16.0 points, 6.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 2.0 steals. He shot50percentfromthefloorand42.9percentfromthe arc.

MR. CLUTCH BECOMES MR. STOPPER Coming out of high school, Chris Crawford had a reputation for scoring the ball and shooting the three-pointer. Well, in his freshman season as a Ti-

ger, the Memphis, Tenn., native is adding defensive stopper to his resume. InMemphis’winoverUABJan.22,CrawfordharrassedtheBlazers’topthree-pointthreat,JamarrSanders, the entire contest. Sanders entered the con-test shooting nearly 40 percent from the arc (39.5 percent), but Crawford held him scoreless from the three-point line (0-of-10)and forcedhim intofiveturnovers. In two early games in November, Crawford was switchedtoguardMiami’s(Fla.)DurandScottandNorthwesternState’sWillPratt in thesecondhalf,andtheTigers’6-foot-4guardlimitedbothplayers’touches.

TIGERS’ RECENT BUZZER BEATERS Charles Carmouche’s three-pointer with 1.2 seconds left on the clock at Southern Miss to give the Tigers the 76-75 win should be a common occur-rance for Memphis fans. In recent years, the Tigers have had several “beat-the-buzzer” moments, and the following chronicles those (TV in parenthesis):

2010-11vs. Southern Miss (CSS) — After the Golden Ea-gles hit 1-of-2 FT with :06.7 on the clock, the ball is inbounded to Joe Jackson, who dribbles up the right side of the court. Once he gets past midcourt, Jackson throws a cross-court pass to Charles Car-mouche, who swishes a three-pointer with :01.2 left for the 76-75 win.2009-10vs. St. John’s (NIT; ESPN2) — After the Red Storm ties with game at 71-all with 9.9 seconds left, Mem-

phis inbounds the ball to Elliot Williams, who is double-teamed and gives up the ball to Wesley Witherspoon. He then drives to the basket and throws in an attempt high off the glass that hangs on the rim before falling through at the buzzer for the 73-71 win.2008-09vs. Tulsa (ESPN2) — After 2 FT gives Tulsa a 54-53 lead with 4.5 seconds, Memphis runs the “Mary-land” play. Willie Kemp hits Antonio Anderson with a pass in stride near mid-court. Anderson drives all the way to the basket and lays in a shot over Tulsa center Jerome Jordan at the buzzer for the 55-54 win.

CHANGING IT UP It’snotasurprisethatheadcoachJosh Pastner has had to juggle his starting lineup in 2010-11 with injuries, additions and subtraction of players and the overall youth of the squad.

TIGERS SEVENTH YOUNGEST IN NCAA No one wants to hear how young the 2010-11 Memphis team is anymore with half the season gone by. However, entering the campaign, the Tigers had the seventh-youngest squad out of 346 NCAA Divi-sion I programs, according to kenpom.com. Memphis is one of only four teams to be ranked in the top-25 national polls at some time this season with a top-50 youngest team. Connecticut (12th), Kentucky (36th) and North Carolina (40th) are the other three schools with a top-50 young team that was also ranked in the top-25 of the national polls at some point during 2010-11. The next youngest team in Conference USA is UCFat102.Saturday’sfoe,Marshall,isthenation’s234th-youngest team. The following lists the top-10 youngest teams and where the C-USA schools fall on the kenpom.com list:

The Tigers have the most newcomers on the team for the first time since the 1972-73 season.Memphis has eight newcomers on its roster (seven freshmen, one transfer) in 2010-11. The 1972-73 Ti-gers had 10 newcomers on their roster, and many of thosewereavailablebecause1972-73wasthefirstyear of freshmen eligibility.

That 1972-73 Memphis squad advanced to the NCAA national title game.

CLOSE CALLS UNDER PASTNER The Tigers played another nail-biter in their 76-73 overtime victory over UAB Jan. 22, but Memphis fans should be familiar with close-call contests. In just under two years in head coach Josh Pastner’s tenure, the Tigers have played 23 single-digit out-come games, and have a 16-7 record (.696 winning percentage) in those contests. In games decided by four or fewer points, Mem-phis is 8-2, winning the last eight. This season, the Tigers have a 9-1 record in single-digit outcome games.

WITHERSPOON REINSTATED; WON’T PLAY THIS WEEK DUE TO KNEE INJURY Head coach Josh Pastner announced Jan. 20 that junior Wesley Witherspoon was reinstated to the team. However, the Atlanta, Ga., native is not ex-pected to see action this week as a result of lingering soreness from his right knee injury. On Jan. 13, Pastner announced that Wither-spoonhadbeensuspendedindefinitelyforaninter-nal matter. He did not play in the Jan. 15 Marshall and Jan. 19 Southern Miss contests. The 6-foot-9 forward is Memphis’ second-

leading scorer (11.5 ppg) and leading rebounder (4.9 rpg). On Dec. 10, Witherspoon underwent surgery for a right knee meniscal tear and was expected to missup tofiveweeksofaction.He,however, re-turned13dayslaterandplayedintheTigers’Dec.23 game versus Georgetown.

NEW C-USA SCHEDULE FORMAT IN 2010-11 Well,theleague’sschedule-makerlikesalittletweakingafterfiveyears,sothe2010-11ConferenceUSA slate takes on a different look with divisional play without separating into divisions. What remains the same in C-USA are the one division standings and the 16-game league schedule for all teams. However, the change comes in who plays who. This season, C-USA basketball plays a schedule based on divisions similar to the set-up in football. Teams in the East (East Carolina, Marshall, Mem-phis, Southern Miss, UAB, UCF) and West (Hous-ton, Rice, SMU, Tulane, Tulsa, UTEP) play each other twice. The teams cross over and play squads in the other division once.

won 46 of its last 51 January games (.902 winning percentage).

GAME #1#19/19 Memphis 104 • Centenary 40

Nov. 12, 2010 • Memphis, Tenn.Global Sports Challenge

In a game that it dominated throughout, Memphis used scoring from 10 different players and a deluge of trifectas to down Centenary College 104-40 in front of 17,792 fans in the regular season opener. The Tigers were led by freshman Antonio Barton, who scored 17 points on 5-of-6 shooting, including 3-of-3 from beyond the arc. He also had five steals and four as-sists in 23 minutes of action. Fellow freshman Chris Crawford was also perfect from the field, finishing with 16 points on a perfect 6-of-6 from the field in just 13 minutes. Angel Garcia netted 14 points on 3-of-6 shooting and a perfect 6-of-6 from the charity stripe. He also grabbed five rebounds. Sophomore Drew Barham finished with career-highs in both points (13) and reb1 full force, holding the Gents to 26.1 shooting from the field, including just 2-of-15 from beyond the arc. Memphis also forced 28 turnovers, con-verting them into 37 points. The biggest difference in the game for Memphis was its bench which scored 63 of the Tigers’ 104 points. None of the Gents managed double figures, with a trio of players finishing with six points (Jeron Trotman, Aaron Harwell, and Logan Lowery.) Trotman led Centenary with five rebounds, while Harwell added three steals.

GAME #2#19/19 Memphis 72 • Miami (Fla.) 68

Nov. 15, 2010 • Memphis, Tenn.

In a game that had 58 fouls, 13 ties and 15 lead chang-es, No. 19/19 Memphis scrapped its way to a 72-68 non-conference victory over Miami (Fla.) to tip off ESPN’s 24 Hours of Hoops in front of 17,783 raucous fans at FedEx-Forum. Trailing 63-59 after a three-point bucket by Malcolm Grant at the four minute mark in the second half, Wesley Witherspoon intercepted a pass near mid-court and fed a streaking Chris Crawford to narrow the margin to 63-61. After a missed shot by Miami, Witherspoon drew a fouled and calmly stepped to the line and knocked down two from the charity stripe to even the mark at 63 with 2:26 to play. Miami countered as Durand Scott drew another foul and made two free throws to put the Hurricanes back in front 65-63. Crawford again answered the bell, this time with a corner trifecta that sent FedExForum into a frenzy and put Memphis ahead 66-65. Scott went back to the line on the next possession, this time making one of two to again tie the ballgame at 66. Charles Carmouche and Joe Jackson would each make a pair of free throws to keep the Canes’ late push at bay be-fore Antonio Barton’s free throw with 1.5 seconds left put the game out of reach 72-68. Jackson finished with 17 points on 5-of-11 shooting to lead the Tigers, who won despite shooting just 33.9 percent and getting dominated 51-31 on the glass. C a r m o u c h e added 13 points, including 8-of-10 from the charity stripe, and five steals in a team-high 31 minutes. Witherspoon (12) and Antonio Barton (10) were the only other Tigers that finished in double figures. The Miami backcourt of Scott and Grant, which came in averaging a combined 43 points, didn’t disappoint. The duo combined for nearly half of Miami’s points. Scott finished with 20 on 5-of-11 field goals and 9-of-11 free throws, while Grant finished with 18 points. H u r r i c a n e center Reggie Johnson, who was limited in the first half due to foul trouble, found a rhythm after the break and fin-ished with a double-double of 12 points and 12 rebounds. Memphis held Arian Foster, who led the ACC in three-point shooting last season with a mark of 42.1 per-cent, scoreless in 22 minutes of action. Foster finished 0-of-4 from the arc, and Miami shot just 15.8 percent as a team from three.

Global Sports Challenxge

Wesley Witherspoon netted his first career double-double with 24 points and 12 rebounds and Will Barton added 22 points, including 11-straight in the second half, to lift Memphis past Northwestern State 94-79. Led by 14 first-half points from Witherspoon, the Tigers took a 57-44 lead into the break, but the Demons countered with a 21-9 run to open the second half and take the lead 63-61 at the 13:12 mark. The Tigers responded immediately. Joe Jackson found an open Barton in the corner for a trifecta to put the Ti-gers back on top 64-63. Barton then picked Devon Baker’s pocket near midcourt before gathering the ball and going up for an emphatic two-handed jam to extend the Memphis advantage to 66-63. The Demons’ William Mosley answered on the other end with a layup to narrow the gap to 66-65, but Barton countered again with another three-pointer to extend the Memphis advantage to 69-65. From that point, the Tigers closed the game on a 25-14 run. Barton finished with eight boards and three steals to complement his 22 points in 31 minutes of action. Tarik Black scored all of his nine points in the second half and was a presence inside for Memphis. Fellow big man Angel Garcia also added nine points, all coming in the first half. Jackson, who led Memphis against Miami with 17 points, finished with eight points and three assists. Will Pratt led Northwestern State with 23 points on 8-of-18 shooting in 30 minutes of play. Devon Baker (15 points) and Louis Ellis (11) were the only other Demons to finish in double figures. After being outrebounded by 20 in its previous game against Miami, Memphis dominated the Demons on the glass 42-28. The Tigers pulled down 19 offensive rebounds and converted them into 20 second-chance points. It was the highest rebounding margin (+14) since Memphis out-rebounded UCF by 14 on Feb. 10 of last season.

GAME #4#19/19 Memphis 70 • LSU 61Nov. 21, 2010 • Tupelo, Miss.

Global Sports Challenge

Behind Wesley Witherspoon’s 20 points, No. 19/19 Memphis showed grit and tenacity on its way to a 70-61 victory over LSU in front of 7,941 fans at BancorpSouth Arena in the Global Sports Challenge. It was the largest crowd to watch a basketball game at BancorpSouth Arena. Memphis found itself in a first-half hole for the first time this season, as LSU took a 34-33 lead into the break on the strength of 12 first-half points from Aaron Dotson. After the break, Memphis came out of the locker room firing and used a 6-0 early second-half run to regain the lead at 39-34 at the 17:23 mark after a Joe Jackson steal and coast-to-coast finish. LSU, though. responded with a 6-2 run to narrow the gap to 41-40 on a contested triple from Andre Stringer, who finished with a team-high 13 points. Chris Crawford answered on the ensuing possession for Memphis, driving through the left side of the lane and using the backboard to go up and under for an “and-one” layup that keyed an 8-0 run for a 49-40 advantage. LSU again responded. This time, the visiting Tigers put together a 12-4 run to climb within one at 53-52 at the 5:39 mark. An old fashioned three-point play by Jackson put Memphis ahead 55-52, before LSU answered with a trifecta from Ralston Turner and a layup by Stringer to take the lead 57-56. After Tarik Black split a pair of free throws to notch the game at 57, Jackson found Crawford alone in the corner. Crawford, who had struggled finding his range throughout the game, calmly received the pass and swished home the three-ball to put Memphis in front for good at 60-57 with 3:53 to play. An emphatic dunk by Witherspoon on the next Tiger possession gave Memphis a 62-57 lead with less than three minutes to play. Another triple from Crawford at the 1:02 mark ex-tended the Tiger lead to eight at 67-59 and put the game out of reach. Jackson iced the game in the final minute, hitting 3-of-4 from the charity stripe.

GAME #5#14/15 Memphis 102 • Tennessee Martin 80

Nov. 23, 2010 • Memphis, Tenn.Global Sports Challenge

Will Coleman scored a career-high 20 points and add-ed seven rebounds off the bench to lead No. 14/15 Mem-phis past Tennessee Martin 102-80 in a non-conference encounter. Coleman, who was held scoreless in 13 minutes of action in the previous contest against LSU, responded in a big way against the Skyhawks. The 6-foot-9 junior scored on an array of crowd-pleasing and emphatic dunks, as he led the Tigers to their second 100-point plus performance of the season. Freshman Will Barton, also coming off the bench, fin-ished with 20 points, five rebounds and six assists, and ju-nior Angel Garcia finished with 15 points and nine boards in a reserve role. The Tigers reserves racked up 60 points against the Skyhawks. Joe Jackson (16 points) and Wesley Witherspoon (14) were the only other Tigers in double figures. Memphis outplayed Tennessee Martin in nearly every facet of the game, leading from start to finish and assisting on 29 of 38 baskets. Memphis also took advantage of its superiority in size, accumulating a season-high 56 points in the paint. Witherspoon started the scoring outbreak for Mem-phis on the first possession of the game, as he controlled the ball at the top of the key before driving for an easy lefty lay-in. Witherspoon scored seven of the first 11 points for Memphis, and the Tigers continued to get easy looks throughout the contest, finishing 38-of-74 from the field (51.4 percent) and converting 19 Skyhawk turnovers into 31 points. Reuben Clayton, a Memphis native, led the way for Tennessee Martin, scoring 20 points and pulling down 10 boards. However, 15 of Clayton’s 20 points came in the opening half. Terence Smith (14 points) and Mike Liabo (10) were the only other Skyhawks in double figures. Ten-nessee Martin finished the game shooting 49.2 percent (29-of-59) from the floor, including 8-of-17 from beyond the arc.

GAME #6#14/15 Memphis 78 • Arkansas St. 71 (OT)

Dec. 1, 2010 • Memphis, Tenn.

Will Barton scored 20 points and added six rebounds in a career-high 39 minutes to lead No. 14/15 Memphis past Arkansas State 78-71 in a non-conference overtime thriller at FedExForum. Memphis sprinted out to a 25-7 advantage after the Red Wolves made just two of their first 20 attempts from the floor and cruised to a 35-24 halftime advantage. Arkan-sas State opened the second half on a 9-2 run to cut the lead to 37-33 at the 17:54 mark, but the Tigers responded and quickly built the lead back to 50-40 with 14:13 to play. The Red Wolves, however, wouldn’t go away, as they cut the lead to as few as three on three different occasions before a three-point basket by Daniel Bryant cut the Tigers’ lead to 65-64 with 2:10 to play. Bryant made one-of-two free throws with 35 seconds remaining to tie the game at 65-all and send it to overtime. With Memphis big man Will Coleman fouled out, Arkansas State fed it down low to Martavius Adams, who converted back-to-back buckets to give the Red Wolves their first lead of the game at 69-65 with 3:52 remaining in overtime. Memphis finally snapped out of its offensive funk and went on a decisive 9-0 run sparked by a determined drive and left-handed layup by Wesley Witherspoon to narrow the gap to 69-67. Joe Jackson stole the ball on the ensuing Red Wolves’ possession and drove for a fast-break layup to knot the game at 69-all. Charles Carmouche buried two free throws on Mem-phis’ next possession after being fouled on a drive to put the Tigers back in front at 71-69. After an Adams’ missed jumper, Jackson again drove to the hole, and this time, con-verting a three-point play to give Memphis a 74-69 advan-tage and put the game out of reach. Jackson finished with 10 points, joining Barton (20), Witherspoon (10) and Antonio Barton (1) as the only Ti-gers to finish in double figures. Bryant finished with 16 points on 5-of-17 shooting to lead Arkansas State. Memphis native Donald Boone chipped in 12 points. Adams (11 points) and Malcoln Kirkland (10) also finished in double figures for the Red Wolves.

GAME #7#14/15Memphis 77 • Western Kentucky 61

Dec. 4, 2010 • Memphis, Tenn.

Coming into Saturday’s matchup against Western Kentucky, Memphis (7-0) needed someone to emerge on the inside. D.J. Stephens did just that by totaling career highs in points (11) and rebounds (13) in a series of above-the-rim plays en route to leading the Tigers to a 77-61 vic-tory over the Hilltoppers (3-5) at FedExForum. Freshmen Joe Jackson (15) and Tarik Black (11) were the only other Tigers to finish in double-digits in a game that saw Memphis commit 21 turnovers and lose the battle of the boards, 43-41. WKU finished with 25 offensive re-bounds, which resulted in 21 second-chance points. The Tigers overcame that sloppy play by exploiting their size on the inside and forcing the Hilltoppers into 20 turnovers of their own. Memphis finished with 46 points in the paint and 20 points off the 21 WKU turnovers. WKU was led by 16 points from Sergio Kerusch, who added eight rebounds in 29 minutes. Ken Brown (10) was the only other Hilltopper that finished in double figures. The Memphis defense held Juan Patillo to just six points on 1-of-10 shooting from the floor. Pattillo came in as WKU’s leading scorer at nearly 17 points per contest. Memphis took a 47-31 advantage into halftime and was keyed by 11 first-half points from Jackson, who also provided what was perhaps the highlight of the season thus far. The Hilltoppers refused to go away, however, as they cut the lead to single digits on two different occasions in the second half. Memphis was able to respond each time, however. Kerusch made it a 53-45 game at the 13:06 mark on a layup before Wesley Witherspoon responded with an emphatic slam for Memphis on the other end. WKU narrowed the deficit to nine again seven min-utes later, this time on Pattillo’s only field goal of the night at the 6:44 mark that narrowed the Tiger lead to 61-52. Five straight points by Will Coleman, however, effectively put the game out of reach, as the Tigers closed the game on a 16-9 run. Coleman and Witherspoon each finished with seven points in the contest. Black’s 11 points were a career-high, and the freshmen from Memphis, Tenn., also added a ca-reer-best four rejections.

GAME #8#4/4 Kansas 81 • #13/14 Memphis 68

Dec. 7, 2010 • New York, N.Y.Jimmy V Classic

Kansas’ physical play proved too much for Memphis, as the No. 13/14 Tigers fell to the No. 4/4 Jayhawks 81-68 at Madison Square Garden. The game was part of the Jimmy V Classic doubleheader. Will Barton scored 16 points on 7-of-15 shooting and and pulled down seven rebounds in the losing effort for Memphis. Chris Crawford added 15 points, while Charles Carmouche was the only other Tiger in double figures with 12 points. Memphis battled back from being down eight points on two different occasions in the first half and narrowed the deficit to 37-35 at halftime on the strength of Crawford’s 12 first-half points. Tarik Black tied the game at 39-all for the Tigers with two free throws at the 18:21 mark of the second half, but Kansas countered with a 9-0 run to recapture the lead 48-39 at the 16:05 mark. The Tigers narrowed the margin to 50-45 on a layup from Will Barton with 14:07 to play, but that was the closest Memphis got the remainder of the con-test. Kansas went on a 10-1 run capped by an Elijah John-son dunk at the 10:10 mark to extend the lead to double digits for good. Twin post players Markieff and Marcus Morris led the attack for the Jayhawks, scoring 16 points and 14 points, respectively. Tyshawn Taylor (13 points) and Thomas Robinson (10) also finished in double digits for Kansas. Memphis struggled shooting the ball, making just 27-of-72 (37.5 percent) attempts from the floor, includ-ing 6-of-18 (33.3 percent) from beyond the arc. Black and Witherspoon added eight points apiece, but went at com-bined 6-of-21 from the floor. The Tigers forced 22 Jayhawk turnovers, but were outworked on the glass 44-31.

GAME #9#18/19 Memphis 70 • Austin Peay 68 (OT)

Dec. 16, 2010 • Memphis, Tenn.

Despite trailing by as many as 15 points in the second half, Memphis fought back to force overtime and eventu-ally escaped with a 70-68 non-conference victory over Austin Peay. The Tigers committed 14 first-half turnovers and shot just 34.8 percent in the opening period, but still enjoyed a 24-19 cushion heading into the break. Four-straight turnovers to start the second half quickly turned into a 16-0 Governors run that put Memphis on its heels. Scoring 21-straight over seven minutes that spanned both halves, Austin Peay turned a 24-14 deficit into a 35-24 lead just three minutes into the second half. Sparked by his own four-point play at the 16:45 mark, Charles Carmouche single-handedly willed the Tigers back into the game by scoring or assisting on Memphis’ first 20 points of the second half. The Tigers finally came back to tie the contest after a corner triple from Chris Crawford that capped a 19-4 Memphis run and knotted the game at 47-all with 8:35 to play. Memphis again was trailing in the closing minutes. Down 56-53 with 27 seconds left, Will Barton drew a foul and headed to the line. Barton made the first and missed the second, but a fortuitous bounce off the rebound allowed Memphis to get the ball back trailing 56-54. The other Barton brother responded this time, as An-tonio took the ball on the right wing and took two dribbles before lofting a 12-foot floater up and in to tie the game at 56 and force overtime. Clutch three-point shooting by Memphis in the extra period proved to be enough to lift the Tigers past the Gover-nors. Crawford nailed two trifectas and assisted on another by Will Barton, as the Tigers jumped out to a 68-62 advan-tage with just under a minute to play. Austin Peay refused to lay down, tough, as triples from Melvin Baker and Justin Blake brought the Gover-nors back within 69-68 with 13 seconds to play. After Will Barton made 1-of-2 free throws to extend the advantage to 70-68, the Tigers locked down on defense and forced a missed three-point attempt from Blake at the buzzer. Austin Peay won the battle on the glass 51-41, and both squads committed over 20 miscues apiece (UofM 24; APSU 20).

GAME #10#16/17 Memphis 68 • Texas A&M-CC 63

Dec. 20, 2010 • Memphis, Tenn.

Freshman Joe Jackson scored a career-high 23 points and Memphis survived another close call, as the Tigers hung on to beat Texas A&M-Corpus Christi 68-63 at Fe-dExForum. The Tigers found themselves ahead 20-14 with eight minutes to go in the first half, but cold shooting allowed the Islanders to reel off an 8-0 run to grab the lead at 22-20 with 6:10 to go before the break. Memphis responded with its own 6-0 mini-run, but Texas A&M-Corpus Christi finished the first half on a 7-2 spurt to claim a 29-28 advan-tage going into intermission. Memphis came out of the break and regained the lead 33-29 after a triple from Jackson and a layup from Will Coleman, who finished with 15 points, nine boards, and four blocks in a team-high 32 minutes. The Islanders again responded and went on a 9-2 run to retake the lead at 38-35 with 12:25 remaining in the game. Memphis battled back again and trailed by only two points at 45-43 with just under 10 minutes to play. After back-to-back layups from Jackson, Antonio Barton drove hard to the bucket for the hoop and was fouled. He converted the free throw for an old-fashioned three-point play that put Memphis ahead for good 46-45. Texas A&M-Corpus Christi cut the lead to three on four different occasions in the final 6:14, but clutch free throw shooting and solid ball handling allowed the Tigers to keep the Islanders at bay. Drew Barham split a pair of free throws with 33 sec-onds remaining to make it a two-possession game at 65-61, and after his second free throw missed the mark, Chris Crawford got the rebound. Memphis played keep-away for 12 seconds until Will Barton was fouled with :21 left. He hit both charity tosses to put the game away for Memphis. Charles Carmouche, coming off a 16-point perfor-mance against Austin Peay, was the only other Tiger to finish in double figures. The junior transfer from New Or-leans finished with 12 points and six rebounds in 31 min-utes. Hollis Hill led the Islanders with 16 points on 5-of-10 shooting in 21 minutes off the bench. Terence Jones and Justin Reynolds finished with 11 points apiece. Demond Watt led the visitors on the glass with eight boards.

GAME #11#10/9 Georgetown 86 • #16/17 Memphis 69

Dec. 23, 2010 • Memphis, Tenn.

Georgetown’s Austin Freeman scored a game-high 24 points and Julian Vaughn posted a double-double of 15 points and 10 boards to lift the No. 10/9 Hoyas to an 86-69 non-conference win over No. 16/17 Memphis in an ESPN2 nationally-televised game from FedExForum. Chris Wright added 19 points for the visitors. Will Barton led the Tigers with 18 points, seven re-bounds and three assists. Will Coleman had 12 points and six boards, while Tarik Black added 10 points. After an inspiring late first-half run, Memphis opened the second half hoping to continue that momentum swing. The more-experienced Hoyas, though, had another plan — open the second half with a spurt to put the game out of reach. And that’s what Georgetown did. The Hoyas went on a 10-4 run to start the second half and extended their halftime lead from 40-36 to 50-40. Vaughn paced the run with four of his 15 points. Memphis cut the Hoyas’ lead to nine at 54-45 on a D.J. Stephens thunder dunk at the 15:39 mark, but the Tigers got no clos-er the rest of the contest. Memphis cut the Georgetown lead to nine points three other times, with the last coming at 67-58 with 6:20 left. From there, the Hoyas steadily pulled away for the win, outscoring Memphis 19-11 in the final six minutes. In the first half, the game was neck-and-neck in the early going. Memphis grabbed a four-point lead at 22-18 at the 10:03 mark, but Georgetown responded with an 8-0 spurt to take a 26-22 advantage. The Hoyas did not trail again in the game. Georgetown shot 56.9 percent from the floor and 45.5 percent from the three-point line. The Hoyas had 18 assists and only 11 turnovers. Memphis hit 39.4 percent from the field and 31.6 per-cent from the arc. The Tigers won the battle on the boards, out-rebounding Georgetown 36-33. The Tigers dished out 15 assists, but committed 14 turnovers.

GAME #12#21/22 Memphis 88 • Lipscomb 70

Dec. 30, 2010 • Memphis, Tenn.

Wesley Witherspoon posted a double-double of 28 points and 14 boards and Will Barton added 15 points, six boards and five assists to lift No. 21/22 Memphis to an 88-70 non-conference victory over Lipscomb. Joe Jackson (13 points) and Antonio Barton (12) also netted double figures for the Tigers. Jackson dished out a career-high eight assists, while Witherspoon had three boards and three steals. Will Cole-man scored six points and grabbed seven boards. Adnan Hodzic led Lipscomb with 22 points and seven boards. Josh Slater added 12 points, four boards and six as-sists (team high), and Brandon Brown scored 10 points and pulled down four boards. The Tigers led 29-16 with 8:32 left in the first half and looked like they were going to pull away. The Bisons, though, put together a 16-6 rally to cut the Memphis advan-tage to 35-32 with 2:01 on the clock. Hodzic (10 points) and Slater (four points) paced the Lipscomb run. After a Lipscomb 30-second timeout, Memphis closed the first half with a 7-0 spurt to take a 42-32 lead into halftime. Will Barton started the run with a dunk, and Chris Crawford struck next with a three-pointer. Antonio Barton closed the spurt with a layup. In the second half, Lipscomb stayed within striking distance at 59-53 with 13:26 left in the game. The Tigers, though, answered with a 16-6 run to increase their lead to 75-59 with 6:52 left and put the game out of reach. Antonio Barton ignited the spurt with two treys. Memphis shot 54 percent from the field and 50 per-cent from the three-point line (11-of-22). The Tigers re-corded 21 assists on 34 made baskets. Memphis won the battle of the glass for the third-straight game 42-23. The Bisons shot 46 percent from the field and 72.7 percent from the charity stripe. Lipscomb, however, man-aged to hit only 19 percent from the arc (4-of-21). The Memphis defense forced 15 Bisons turnovers, but the Tigers committed 18 misuces.

GAME #13#21/22 Memphis 91 • Tennessee St. 86

Jan. 2, 2011 • Memphis, Tenn.

Antonio Barton scored a career-high 24 points, in-cluding 20 in the second half, and No. 21/22 Memphis sur-vived a three-point shooting onslaught to defeat Tennessee State 91-86 at FedExForum. After defeating Lipscomb 88-70 Dec. 30, Memphis again found itself in back-and-forth affair, as Tennessee State seemed to have a long range answer for every Tiger run. Both teams shot above 50 percent in the first half, as Tennessee State connected on 10-of-11 three-point at-tempts in the first 20 minutes of play. Memphis countered with solid offensive sets in the halfcourt and used its ad-vantage inside to counter the shooting barrage. Led by Tarik Black’s 15 first-half points off the bench, Memphis came back to tie the game at 43-all at halftime af-ter trailing 35-28 with less than eight minutes to play. Will Barton also added 10 in the first half. Tennessee State didn’t slow down after halftime, as the visiting Tigers came out firing in the second half and put Memphis on its heels after a layup from Kenny Moore put Tennessee State ahead 60-52 with 13:06 to play. On the next Memphis possession, the Tigers swung the ball around the perimeter before Joe Jackson found Antonio Barton open at the top of the key. Barton took the pass and drilled the open look, and then did the same thing on the next two Memphis trips. Barton’s three-straight trifectas brought Memphis to within one at 62-61. Both Tigers went back and forth for the remainder of the game — there were nine lead changes in the contest — before Antonio Barton’s fifth triple with 2:34 remaining gave Memphis the lead for good at 82-79. A three-pointer by Moore with 22 seconds left brought Tennessee State back to within 87-86, but Mem-phis scored four-straight points to finish the game. Moore led the three-point onslaught for Tennessee State, as the forward made 5-of-6 from deep en route to scoring 22 points. Wil Peters (17), Robert Covington (16), Patrick Miller (12) and Jacquan Nobles (11) all finished in double figures for Tigers, which was seeking their first ever victory over a ranked foe.

GAME #14 Tennessee 104 • #21/22 Memphis 84

Jan. 5, 2011 • Knoxville, Tenn.

Tennessee made 12-of-21 from long range and led from start to finish in a 104-84 victory over Memphis at Thompson-Boling Arena. Will Coleman scored 17 points and Will Barton added 14 of his own, but the Tigers struggled from the field (30-of-65) and the charity stripe (14-of-26) and couldn’t mount a comeback against the hot-shooting Volunteers. Melvin Goins started the barrage of trifectas for Ten-nessee just 44 seconds into the game when he took a pass from Scotty Hopson and drained the triple for an early 3-0 advantage. Memphis fought back to narrow the deficit to 14-10 after a triple from Charles Carmouche at the 15:40 mark, but Tennessee responded with 10-0 run to seize control of the contest and never looked back. Despite the Tigers clos-ing the first half on a 7-0 run sparked by five points from D.J. Stephens, the Volunteers took a 49-34 lead into the break. Freshmen Tobias Harris led the way for Tennessee, scoring 17 points and grabbing 13 points in a double-dou-ble effort, as the Volunteers outrebounded the Tigers 41-33 and scored 42 points in the paint. Scotty Hopson went 6-of-12 from the field en route to a 16-point performance, while Goins made all four of his attempts from deep on the way to scoring 15 points. Stephens finished with nine points and six rebounds in the losing effort, while Drew Barham and Antonio Bar-ton finished with nine points and eight points, respectively. Memphis committed 16 turnovers which led to 23 Tennes-see points and allowed the Volunteers to score 19 points in transition. Tennessee shot 53.7 percent from the floor and 57.1 percent from the arc. Memphis hit 46.2 percent from the field and 45.5 percent from the three-point line.

GAME #15#21/22 Memphis 61 • East Carolina 58

Jan. 8, 2011 • Memphis, Tenn.

Despite going scoreless from the floor for the final 5:23, Memphis scrapped out a 61-58 victory over East Carolina in the Conference USA opener for both teams. After allowing 104 points in a Jan. 5 loss at Tennes-see, defense was a focal point, as Memphis held the Pi-rates to 5-of-17 shooting in the opening half. The Tigers out-rebounded ECU 21-11 en route to a 33-21 advantage at the half. A slow second-half start again proved troublesome for Memphis. The Pirates outscored the Tigers 28-16 in the first 12 minutes to tie the game at 49-all. East Carolina hit 5-of-8 from beyond the arc in its run. The Pirates briefly held the lead at 52-51 after an and-one dunk from Darrius Morrow at the 7:16 mark. Memphis regained the lead on a pair of free throws from Tarik Black on its next possession, but again found itself tied with East Carolina at 56-all with 3:51 to play. Memphis, however, is no stranger to late-game dra-ma, as seven of its 12 victories have been by nine or fewer points, and the Tigers again rallied late for the win against the Pirates. Wesley Witherspoon stepped to the line with 2:54 to play and swished two free throws through to put Memphis ahead for good at 58-56. Free throws from Antonio Barton and Joe Jackson on the Tigers’ next two possessions gave Memphis a 61-58 lead with :03 left. Chris Crawford then intercepted a pass intended to set up Brock Young for a game-tying three-pointer to seal the victory. Black finished with 12 points and seven rebounds while battling foul trouble throughout the second half. Coleman finished with 11 points, including going 7-of-12 from the charity stripe, as the senior finished in double fig-ures for the second-straight game. Morrow led the way for the Pirates, finishing with 17 points and eight rebounds in a game-high 33 minutes. Ja-mar Abrams (15) and Young (10) were the only other ECU players to finish in double figures.

GAME #16SMU 64 • Memphis 58

Jan. 12, 2011 • Dallas, Texas

The host SMU Mustangs used a 17-0 second-half run and shot 56.3 percent from beyond the arc en route to up-setting Memphis 64-58 in a Conference USA encounter at Moody Coliseum. The Tigers led 48-37 after a dunk by Tarik Black at the 11:18 mark. However, a Memphis cold-shooting streak coupled with empty trips at the free throw line — 0-of-9 from the charity stripe in the second half — were too much for the Tigers to overcome. Papa Dia scored five-straight points, capped by a reverse layup and three-point play with 3:16 left, to give SMU its first lead of the game at 51-48. Collin Mangrum, who finished with 15 points in the game, then buried a triple on the next possession to extend the lead to 54-48 with under three minutes to go. Joe Jackson responded on the next possession with a layup — the first Tiger score since the 11:20 mark — to cut the lead to 54-50 with 2:02 to play. Jackson was whistled for palming the basketball on the next possession, how-ever, and Magrum capitalized with a follow-up layup on the ensuing Mustangs’ possession to push the lead back to six at 56-50. A missed jumper by Jackson on the next possession forced the Tigers to foul, and Robert Nyakundi made two free throws to give SMU its largest lead of the night at 58-50 with 39 seconds on the clock. Wesley Witherspoon and Will Barton connected from long range in the final 30 seconds, but the Tigers missed five free throws down the stretch and couldn’t close the gap. Jackson led the Tigers with 15 points, while Wither-spoon was the only other Memphis player to finish in dou-ble figures with 11 points. Tarik Black added nine points and five rebounds. For a second-straight season, Dia led the Mustangs to a victory at home over the Tigers, scoring 21 points and pulling down 10 boards. Nyakundu and Mangrum added 15 points of apiece for SMU.

GAME #17Memphis 77 • Marshall 61

Jan. 15, 2011 • Memphis, Tenn.

Senior Will Coleman posted his first double-double of the season (19 points, 11 rebounds), and Memphis scored 48 points in the paint as the Tigers never trailed in a 77-61 Conference USA victory over Marshall at FedExForum. After the Tigers jumped out to an early 8-2 advantage, the Thundering Herd battled back to tie the game at 15-all on a Dago Pena trey. A nifty layup by Antonio Barton and a triple from Charles Carmouche on the ensuing Memphis possessions sparked a 20-0 run as Memphis extended its lead to 35-15 at the 6:03 mark. The Tigers shot 17-of-27 (63 percent) from the floor and held Marshall to just 26.9 percent shooting in the open-ing half, while dominating the Thundering Herd on the glass 21-12. Memphis took a 45-28 advantage into half-time. The Thundering Herd never got back into the game after going without a field goal for over six minutes dur-ing the Tigers’ decisive first-half run. Marshall found itself within 51-41 after an old-fashioned three-point play from Damier Pitts, but an emphatic putback jam from D.J. Ste-phens and a Carmouche triple on the next two Tiger pos-sessions effectively put the game out of reach. Carmouche finished with 16 points, connecting on all three of his trey attempts and hitting 7-of-8 from the charity stripe. Freshman Tarik Black, who played alongside Cole-man for much of the game, finished just one rebound short of his own double-double with 12 points and nine boards. Will Barton settled into his mid-range game against the Thundering Herd, making 7-of-9 shots from inside the arc in a 15-point, five-assist effort. DeAndre Kane led Marshall with 16 points and five rebounds, while Tirrell Baines added 15 points of his own. Pitts finished with 14 points, but shot just 4-of-16 from the floor. The Tigers finished the game shooting 50.9 percent from the floor and 72.7 percent from the free throw line. Memphis won the battle on the glass 39-29. The Tigers de-fense held Marshall to 37 percent shooting from the floor and 22.2 percent from the three-point arc.

GAME #18Memphis 76 • Southern Miss 75Jan. 19, 2011 • Hattiesburg, Miss.

In what will go down as the Tigers’ biggest comeback in the last 40 seasons, Charles Carmouche buried a three-pointer from the left wing with :01.2 on the clock to lift Memphis to a thrilling 76-75 victory over rival Southern Miss in Conference USA action. Chris Crawford inter-cepted the Golden Eagles’ inbounds pass on the ensuing possession to seal the win. Memphis was down by 18 points at 29-11with 7:49 to go in the first half and came back to win the game, marking the largest comeback by a Tiger squad since 1970-71. The Tigers cut the Southern Miss lead to 11 points at 40-29 at the break and was still down by double digits (48-37) five minutes into the second half. That’s when Memphis chipped away. A 10-3 Tigers’ run over a 3:44 span sliced a 48-37 Golden Eagle lead to 51-46 at the 12:14 mark of the second half. Southern Miss regained its composure and built the advantage back to nine points at 62-53 with only 7:46 left. The Tigers, though, went on another run — this time a 16-4 spurt to take their first lead of the game at 69-66 with 3:17 left. Crawford hit two treys in the spurt, and Will Bar-ton, who netted a team-high 15 points, hit the three-pointer that game Memphis the lead. After a D.J. Stephens’ dunk made it 71-66, the Golden Eagles responded with an 8-2 spurt to retake the lead at 74-73 on an R.L. Horton lane jumper with 16 seconds left. Carmouche’s jumper with 11 seconds missed, and Horton grabbed the rebound and was fouled with :06.7 remaining. Horton hit 1-of-2 free throws, giving the Tigers one final chance. Joe Jackson took the inbounds pass, raced it up the right side of the court and hit Carmouche with a pin-point, cross-court pass for the game-winning shot. In the first half, Southern Miss jumped on the Tigers early. After a 2-2 tie, the Golden Eagles went on a 10-0 run for a 12-2 advantage. Memphis cut the lead to 16-8, but the home squad raced to another 13-3 spurt for a 29-11 lead. Gary Flowers finished with a game-high 21 points. Horton added 18 points, seven rebounds and three assists. For Memphis, Crawford scored 12 points (all in second half), Carmouche 11 points and Joe Jackson 10 points. Tarik Black grabbed a game-high eight boards. Both teams shot over 50 percent from the floor (UofM, 50.8 per-cent; USM, 51.0 percent).

GAME #20Memphis 77 • UCF 61

Jan. 26, 2011 • Memphis, Tenn.

Will Barton scored 17 points and Joe Jackson added 12 points as Memphis turned in a solid all-around perfor-mance and sent UCF to its fifth-straight loss 77-61 in Con-ference USA action at FedExForum. Barton, playing in front of his father for the first time this season at FedExForum, didn’t disappoint. The fresh-man wing scored 14 of his 17 points in the first half en route to leading Memphis to a 47-28 opening-half advan-tage. After an A.J. Rompza layup evened the score at 16-all with 11:09 to play in the first half, the Tigers responded with a 16-4 run to regain control and take a 32-20 lead. The Knights, though, answered with a quick 6-0 run of their own and cut the margin to 32-26 with just over four minutes to go before the break. The Tigers finished the half on a 15-2 run — fueled by seven points from Barton and five from Chris Crawford — to take a 47-28 halftime lead and put the game out of reach. Crawford finished with 10 points in the contest, as four Tigers mustered double-figures in the victory. Though he fouled out with over eight minutes to play, Tarik Black was a force inside for the Tigers and set the tone early with three blocks in the first five minutes of play. Black finished with a career-best five blocks to comple-ment nine points and four rebounds in 22 minutes. Antonio Barton finished with nine points on 4-of-6 shooting. Sophomore Drew Barham, making his fourth-con-secutive start, finished with five points, five assists and seven rebounds and came up with every loose ball when needed. Marcus Jordan, son of NBA great Michael Jordan, scored 13 points, including 7-of-7 from the charity stripe. P.J. Gaynor was the only other Knight to finish in double figures, tallying 10 points in 15 minutes off the bench. The Tigers shot 48.5 percent from the field, while holding the Knights to 35.5 percent from the floor and 6.7 percent from the three-point line (1-of-15). The Memphis defense collected 11 steals and forced 22 UCF turnovers. The Knights out-boarded Memphis 47-33, including pulling down 22 offensive rebounds.

GAME #19Memphis 76 • UAB 73 (OT)

Jan. 22, 2011 • Birmingham, Ala.

Will and Antonio Barton combined for 33 points and scored all six of Memphis’ points in the extra period en route to leading the Tigers to a 76-73 Conference USA overtime victory against UAB in a sold-out Bartow Arena. Despite missing its final four free throw attempts in overtime and shooting 51.9 percent (14-of-27) from the charity stripe throughout the game, Memphis once again managed to pull out the close victory. Blazers’ senior point guard Aaron Johnson, who fin-ished the game with 13 points, made 1-of-2 free throws with six seconds left in regulation to force overtime. With four freshmen on the floor to start overtime, the Tigers responded by scoring the first five points in the extra period before Johnson cut the lead to 73-70 with 35 seconds remaining. Memphis countered when Tarik Black, who finished with 15 points and hit all five of his field goal attempts, stepped to the line and calmly knocked down two free throws with :26 left in overtime. Antonio Barton made 1-of-2 from the line on the next Memphis possession before Cameron Moore drilled a con-tested trifecta to make it a one-possession game. Will and Antonio Barton both missed two free throws on the next two Memphis possessions, but a last-second shot by the Blazers clanked off the rim allowing the Tigers to escape with their 10th-straight victory over UAB. Will Coleman was the only other Tiger to finish in double figures, as the senior finished with 13 points and three rebounds off the bench. The Tigers shot 28-of-53 (52.8 percent) from the floor, including 6-of-18 (33.3 per-cent) from long range. Moore, who scored 13 of the Blazers’ first 23 points, finished with 24 points and 11 rebounds. Jamarr Sanders scored 15 points, but was 0-of-10 from the three-point arc. Johnson added five assists and four rebounds. Despite coming into the contest ranked 10th in C-USA in three-point field goal percentage defense, Mem-phis held UAB without a trifecta until the 13:32 mark in the second half. The Blazers finished the contest just 2-of-23 from deep.
