DID YOU KNOW? Head coach Josh Pastner’s fi rst Conference USA foe was Southern Miss last year. Pastner’s Ti-gers opened their C-USA schedule in Hattiesburg, Miss., on Jan. 9, 2010, and Memphis pulled out a hard-fought 59-57 victory. With the win, Pastner be-came the fi rst Memphis head coach since Tic Price in 1997-98 to win his Conference USA debut.

TIGERS, GOLDEN EAGLES TIE HISTORY SATURDAY Saturday’s Memphis-Southern Miss game is the 85th meeting between the two longtime rivals, and with that encounter, the series will tie for the longest in Tigers hoops history. The Tigers-Golden Eagles series ties the Mem-phis-Louisville series as the longest in school history at 85 games. A possible 2011 C-USA Tournament meeting between the Tigers and Golden Eagles would make it the longest series in Memphis history.

TIGER SUCCESS AT FEDEXFORUM After a rough fi rst year at their new home in 2004-05, the Tigers bounced back quite nicely and has made FedExForum one of the toughest arenas for opponents to play in. The Tigers have a 123-15 overall record (.891 winning percentage) at FedEx-Forum. Since the 2005 Conference USA Tourna-ment, Memphis has won 113 of its last 122 home games (.926 winning percentage).

BEST HOMECOURT ADVANTAGE Well, Memphis head coach Josh Pastner will say the Tigers have the best homecourt advantage due to the great Tiger Nation fanbase. But, he also has some numbers to back him up.

FedExForumThe Home of The Tigers

The 2010-11 season marks the seventh for the Tigers in their home arena, FedExForum, which offi cially opened in September, 2004. Located just a few feet off Beale Street on historic Highway 61, FedExForum rises to extend the heart of the Memphis entertain-ment district. Memphis plays all of its 2010-11 home contests in the 18,400-seat arena. FedExForum was also the host site for the 2005-09 Con-ference USA Tournaments, 2009 NCAA Men’s South Regional and 2010 NCAA Women’s South Regional. At 135 feet high, FedExForum provides a new backdrop for historic Beale Street. The 805,850 square-feet arena, covering 13.8 acres, features fi ve levels as well as state-of-the-art locker rooms and facilities for sports teams, as well as an exceptional dining and enter-tainment experiences for its patrons.

THIS YEAR’SEARLIER MEETINGMemphis 76 • Southern Miss 75

Jan. 19, 2011 • Hattiesburg, Miss.

In what will go down as the Tigers’ biggest come-back 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 Craw-ford intercepted 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 fi rst 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) fi ve minutes into the second half. That’s when Memphis chipped away. A 10-3 Ti-gers’ 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 ad-vantage 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 fi rst lead of the game at 69-66 with 3:17 left. Crawford hit two treys in the spurt, and Will Barton, 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 fi nal 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 fi rst half, Southern Miss jumped on the Ti-gers 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 fi nished with a game-high 21 points. Horton added 18 points, seven rebounds and three as-sists. For Memphis, Crawford scored 12 points (all in second half), Carmouche 11 points and Joe Jackson 10 points.

Since 2004-05, Memphis has won 123 games at FedExForum, the most home wins in the coun-try over that span of time. The following are the top three programs with the most home wins since 2004-05 (credit to Texas A&M SID for compiling this list):

TIGERS TOUGH AT HOME IN C-USA Since moving to FedExForun in 2004-05, Mem-phis has turned its homecourt into one of toughest arenas for opponents to play, and that is seen in the Tigers’ 123-14 overall record at home. But, it is even tougher for Conference USA foes since conference realignment in 2005-06. Memphis has an incredible 41-2 record (.953 winning percentage) at FedExForum versus C-USA opponents in the regular season since 2005-06. If the four C-USA Tournaments held at FedExForum from 2006-09 are added, the Tigers’ home mark is 53-2 (.964 winning percentage). The following shows some of the nation’s top conference homecourt records since 2005-06 (regu-lar season only):

NO SATURDAY HOME LOVE FOR TIGERS THIS MONTH February is the month for love with Valentine’s Day, but Memphis received none from the schedule-maker when looking at the Tigers’ weekend home schedule this month. Memphis plays three of the four weekends in February on the road with games at Gonzaga Feb. 5, Rice Feb. 19 and UTEP Feb. 26. The Tigers’ only Saturday home contest is this Sat-urday (Feb. 12) versus Southern Miss.

NEW C-USA SCHEDULE FORMAT IN 2010-11 Well, the league’s schedule-maker likes a little tweaking after fi ve years, so the 2010-11 Conference USA 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-

QUICK SECOND MEETINGS With the new scheduling format in Conference USA, most of Memphis’ games against “twice-a-season” league foes are rather close together. Satur-day’s second match-up versus Southern Miss is only 24 days after the fi rst encounter on Jan. 19. Last year, the shortest time between games versus two-time league foes was 19 days (Tulsa Feb. 13 and Mar. 6). The following shows the second meetings versus league opponents in 2010-11 and the days between the encounters:

cluding a school-record and league-record tying 16 games in 2006-07, 2007-08 and 2008-09. Last season, the Tigers fi nished second in the Conference USA regular season standings with a 13-3 league mark. The 13 C-USA wins were tied for the fourth-most for a season in school history, only trailing the three 16-win campaigns (16-0 record) in 2006-07, 2007-08 and 2008-09. The 2009-10 team’s 13 C-USA wins tied the 2002-03 (13-3 record) and 2005-06 (13-1) squads for the fourth-most league victories in a campaign. Memphis won its fi rst outright C-USA regular season title in 2005-06, and followed that with out-right regular season crowns in 2006-07, 2007-08 and 2008-09. Memphis also tied for the C-USA regular season crown in 2003-04 (12-4 record) and 1995-96 (11-3). Memphis also won three National Division ti-tles in 1997-98, 2001-02 and 2002-03, and captured two league White Division championships in 1995-96 and 1996-97.

CLOSE CALLS UNDER PASTNER The Tigers played another nail-biter in their 63-62 Conference USA win over UCF Feb. 9, 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 26 single-

digit outcome games, and have an 18-8 record (.692 winning percentage) in those contests. In games decided by four or fewer points, Mem-phis is 10-3, winning 10 of its last 11. This season, the Tigers have an 11-2 record in single-digit out-come games.

SIX TIGERS NAMED TO 3.0 CLUB FOR 2010 FALL SEMESTER During halftime of the Jan. 26 Memphis-UCF game, a school-record 196 student-athletes were rec-ognized for earning a 3.0 grade-point average in the 2010 fall semester. Six of those 196 in the Tiger 3.0 Club are members of the Memphis basketball team, and they are Drew Barham, Will Barton, Trey Draper, Charles Holt, Joe Jackson and Preston Laird.

NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTION: SHARE THE BALL During the 2010 portion of the 2010-11 sched-ule, the Tigers had a couple of games where they racked up 20 or more assists and that translated into victories. So, head coach Josh Pastner was hoping to see his Tigers share the ball more often in the new year. Memphis has shared the ball on occasion, but when the young Tigers don’t dish out the dimes, it shows in the fi nal score. The following shows the difference when Memphis shares and doesn’t share the ball:

Since The New YearEight Wins Stat Four Losses 16.0 Asst/Game 11.3 72.9 Pts/Game 69.2 14.4 TO/Game 16.0 66.8 Opponent Pts/Game 80.2 1.1 Asst-TO Ratio 0.7

GET YOUR TRACK SHOES ON The scoreboard operator better have his fi ngers ready to go on Saturday as Memphis and Southern Miss are Conference USA’s top two scoring offens-es. Southern Miss leads the league with a 77.0 scor-ing average, while the Tigers are second in C-USA with a 75.8 average. In the fi rst encounter, Southern Miss (fi rst) and Memphis (second) entered the contest as C-USA’s top two scoring offenses and didn’t disappoint. Both teams nearly hit their scoring average in the Tigers’ 76-75 win.

TIGERS, BEWARE THE LEADING SCORER Hopefully, the Tigers learned their lesson from the 2009-10 season when playing Conference USA’s leading scorer, Southern Miss’ Gary Flowers, on Saturday. Flowers leads the league with a 20.2 scor-ing average. Last year, Memphis didn’t fare so well in its three meetings against C-USA’s leading scorer, Houston’s Aubrey Coleman. The Tigers dropped two of the three games to the Cougars, and Coleman averaged 29.0 points in the three contests.

In the fi rst Memphis-Southern Miss match-up Jan. 19, Flowers scored just above his average with 21 points.

BOARD BATTLE AWAITS SATURDAY The Tigers’ toughest battle on the glass is Sat-urday’s foe, Southern Miss. The Golden Eagles lead Conference USA and rank ninth in the nation in re-bound margin at +8.2. Memphis is seventh in C-USA and ranks 169th in rebound margin at +0.9. However, the Tigers hung with the Golden Eagles on the glass in the fi rst meeting Jan. 19. Southern Miss entered that game with a +8.1 rebounding margin, but Memphis was narrowly out-done on the glass 32-30.

TO TURN OVER OR NOT TO TURN OVER? That is the question to be answered in Sat-urday’s Memphis-Southern Miss match-up. The Tigers are Conference USA’s top squad in forcing turnovers. Memphis’ opponents average 15.8 turn-overs per game. However, Southern Miss is C-USA’s best squad at taking care of the ball. The Golden Eagles aver-age only 12.4 turnovers per contest. Even in its nine true road games this year, Southern Miss is hitting its turnover average at 12.5 miscues per game.

FEBRUARY FRIENDLY FOR TIGERS While the Tigers have enjoyed success in the month of January (78-20; .796 winning percentage) since 1999-2000, February hasn’t been too bad ei-

ther over that same period of time. Since 1999-2000, Memphis has a 66-19 record (.776 winning percent-age) in February. Last year, the Tigers posted a 6-2 record in February. Memphis has won 37 of its last 41 games (.902 winning percentage) in the month of February, with the four setbacks to No. 2/2 Tennessee 66-62 on Feb. 23, 2008, No. 17/13 Gonzaga 66-58 on Feb. 6, 2010, Houston 92-75 on Feb. 24, 2010, and Tulsa 68-65 on Feb. 2, 2011.

DID YOU KNOW? The Tigers have the most newcomers on the team for the fi rst 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 those were available because 1972-73 was the fi rst year of freshmen eligibility. That 1972-73 Memphis squad advanced to the NCAA national title game.

TIGER CUBS LEAD THE WAY With Memphis starting three freshmen most games and playing fi ve newbies a lot of minutes, it is expected that over 50 percent of the scoring is falling on their shoulders. Well, it is. In research done by University of North Dakota men’s hoops contact and former Memphis media re-lations graduate assistant Ryan Powell, Memphis is one of three schools in NCAA Division I to get over 60 percent of its scoring from freshmen. To be exact, the Tigers are getting 62 percent of their points from freshmen.

TIGERS SEVENTH YOUNGEST IN NCAA No one wants to hear how young the 2010-11 Memphis team is anymore with more than half the season gone by. However, entering the campaign, the Tigers had the seventh-youngest squad out of 346 NCAA Division I programs, according to ken-pom.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 UCF at 102. Saturday’s foe, Southern Miss, is the 289th-youngest team in the nation (or the 57th-most experienced squad). The following lists the top-10 youngest teams and where the C-USA schools fall on the kenpom.com list:

WITHERSPOON RETURNED IN LIMITED DRILLS FEB. 7; NO GAME ACTION SATUR-DAY Head coach Josh Pastner announced Jan. 20 that Wesley Witherspoon was reinstated to the team. For the fi rst time since his reinstatement, the Atlanta, Ga., native returned to the practice court for limited drills Feb. 7. Witherspoon had not practiced due to lingering soreness in his right knee. He will not see game ac-tion Saturday. On Jan. 13, Pastner announced that Wither-spoon had been suspended indefi nitely for an inter-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-lead-ing scorer (11.5 ppg) and second-leading rebounder (4.9 rpg). On Dec. 10, Witherspoon underwent sur-gery for a right knee meniscal tear and was expected

to miss up to fi ve weeks of action. He, however, re-turned 13 days later and played in the Tigers’ Dec. 23 game versus Georgetown.

CHANGING IT UP It’s not a surprise that head coach Josh 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. According research by USC Upstate SID Alex Edwards, the Tigers are third in the nation in using different starting lineups this year, and the following shows that (top fi ve teams listed below):

“BIG SHOT” BARTON Robert Horry went down in NBA lore as “Big Shot Bob” because of his ability to hit the clutch bas-ket. Well, he’s just a freshman, but Antonio Barton has proven he can hit the big basket in his short time as a Tiger. The following details the big shots Barton hit the last two games:

UCF • Feb. 9• With time running down, received a pass from his brother, Will, in the right corner and buried a three-pointer with :02.6 left• His trey was the game-winner in the Tigers’ 63-62 win

Gonzaga • Feb. 5• Hit running jumper in lane to put Memphis ahead 60-58 with :35 left in the game• Connected on two free throws with :01.9 left to se-cure the 62-58 win

TIGERS’ TRIFECTA DEFENSE While the Tigers are sixth in Conference USA in three-point fi eld percentage at 32.6 percent, Mem-phis has picked up its “game” in defending the arc the last eight contests. In the games since Jan. 15 (Marshall twice, Southern Miss, UAB, UCF twice, Tulsa, Gonzaga), the Tigers have held opponents to 25.3 percent shooting (37-of-146) from the arc, and the following shows that:

Hall Transfers To Memphis

6-foot-8 forward from Memphis can practice immediately with Tigers

Head coach Josh Pastner announced the transfer of Ferrakohn Hall to the Tigers basketball program Jan. 6. Hall, a transfer from Seton Hall University, is eligible to practice with the team im-mediately, but will sit out from game action the next two semesters (spring and fall 2011). Hall’s fi rst practice was Jan. 6. The Memphis, Tenn., native’s fi rst game will be at the conclusion of the 2011 fall semester, which is Dec. 15, 2011. “We are welcoming home one of the city’s products in Ferrakohn to the Tigers program,” said Pastner. “Although he can’t suit up for a game until the end of the 2011 fall semester, I expect the addi-tion of Ferrakohn to the squad to provide an impact for our team at every practice, starting Thursday and moving forward.” In his one-and-a-half seasons at Seton Hall, the 6-foot-8 forward played in 39 games and made two starts. Hall averaged 2.9 points and 2.1 rebounds, while shooting 52.2 percent from the fi eld. This season, Hall played in all 10 games and averaged 4.8 points and 3.3 rebounds, before an-nouncing he would transfer from the Seton Hall program in mid-December. He played in his fi nal game in a Pirate uniform on Dec. 19 versus NJIT and had eight points and four rebounds in 23 min-utes. Hall scored a career-high 15 points in the Pi-rates’ 104-79 win at UMass on Dec. 11. He also had

career bests for fi eld goals (5), free throws (5) and free throw attempts (7) versus the Minutemen. In a Dec. 8 setback to Arkansas in the SEC/Big East Invitational, Hall earned his second collegiate start and played a season-best 26 minutes. He grabbed a career-high seven rebounds versus the Razorbacks. As a freshman in 2009-10, Hall played in 30 games, averaging 2.4 points and 1.7 rebounds and shooting 58.8 percent from the fi eld. He scored a season-best nine points versus Navy and pulled down a season-high six boards versus Hartford. In his fi rst collegiate start at Georgetown, Hall had eight points and three rebounds. Prior to his collegiate career in South Orange, N.J., Hall was a 2009 Tennessee All-State fi rst team pick at White Station High School. As a senior in 2008-09, he averaged 15.4 points and 9.7 boards in helping the Spartans to the 2009 TSSAA Class AAA state crown, the school’s fi rst championship since 2004. In that 2009 title game, Hall grabbed nine rebounds and blocked three shots. For his ef-forts, Hall was an All-District 15 pick and a Com-mercial Appeal “Best of the Preps” fi rst team selec-tion. In his two seasons at White Station, Hall helped lead the Spartans to a 58-20 overall record and back-to-back appearances in the TSSAA Class AAA title game (champion in 2009; runner-up in 2008). Entering his senior season in 2008-09, Hall was rated one of the nation’s top forwards. Rivals.com ranked Hall the country’s No. 46 power forward, while ESPNU.com rated him the nation’s No. 38 small forward.

“MOOCH” TO THE RESCUE If you talk with people that followed Sun Belt Conference hoops the past two years, they’ll tell you Charles Carmouche’s clutch performances for the Tigers this season are nothing new. The following chronicles what “Mooch” has done for Memphis in crunch-time situations this year:

Gonzaga • Feb. 5• Hit clutch three-pointer with 1:44 left in regulation to tie game at 56-all, setting up the Tigers’ chance to win the game• His trey ended a 10-2 Gonzaga run• In fi rst half, scored eight points (layup, two treys) to help turn a 20-15 defi cit into a 25-all tie

Southern Miss • Jan. 19• Hit three-pointer with :01.2 on the clock to give Memphis the 76-75 win, completing the Tigers’ comeback from 18 points down in fi rst half

Austin Peay • Dec. 16• Single-handedly brought Memphis back to give the home team an opportunity for the win• With the Tigers down 43-28 with 13:35 left, scored 11 of his squad’s next 22 points to give Memphis a 50-49 lead at the 5:23 mark• Also had three assists that led to seven points in the run, essentially giving him a hand in 18 of the Tigers’

22 points in the spurt• In addition to the points and assists, pulled down four of his team-high seven boards during the run

DOUBLE YOUR PLEASURE For the fi fth time this season, a Memphis player recorded a double-double. The latest was senior for-ward Will Coleman’s 11-point, 10-rebound perfor-mance in the Tigers’ 68-65 loss to Tulsa Feb. 2. The following tracks the Tigers’ double-doubles through-out the 2010-11 campaign:

BIGGEST COMEBACKS SINCE 1970-71 Well, history was made in the Tigers’ Jan. 19 game at Southern Miss — or at least history since 1970-71. Memphis overcame an 18-point defi cit (29-11 at the 7:49 mark in the fi rst half) to post a 76-75 victory over the Golden Eagles. The win from an 18-point defi cit is the largest for a Tigers’ team in the last 40 seasons (since 1970-71). The following lists the top-four comebacks the last 40 years (credit to Matt Dillon for research):

BARTON A LATE-GAMER If head coach Josh Pastner had his choice, he’d prefer Will Barton get his motor going a little earlier in games. However, later is better than never, and that’s what the 6-foot-6 guard did in the Tigers’ wins over Southern Miss, UAB and UCF, and the follow-ing details that:

UCF • Feb. 9• Scored fi ve of his 15 points in fi nal 9:12; also grabbbed two boards and dished out two assists in the fi nal 9:12• Hit a three-pointer with :58 left to tie the game at 60-all• Assisted on Antonio Barton’s game-winning trey with :02.6 left

UAB • Jan. 22• Netted 10 of his 17 team-high points in the fi nal 7:57 of regulation and overtime• Hit two huge treys late in the second half — the fi rst to cut a UAB lead to 58-56 with 5:10 left and the second with 54 seconds left in regulation to give Memphis a 68-66 lead• Just prior to the trey to give Memphis the lead, as-sisted on Tarik Black’s layup• Baseline fl oater with :47 left in overtime gave the Tigers a 73-68 advantage

Southern Miss • Jan. 19• Netted 10 of his team-best 15 points in the fi nal 9:23 of the game• Scored fi ve points (jumper, trey) in a 9-4 run to turn a 62-60 defi cit into a 69-66 lead• His three-pointer in that spurt gave Memphis its fi rst lead of the game at 69-66 with 3:17 on the clock• Two minutes later, had a put-back dunk to keep the Tigers in the lead at 73-70 with 1:26 left

TIGERS’ RECENT BUZZER BEATERS Antonio Barton’s three-pointer with 2.6 sec-onds left on the clock at UCF to give the Tigers the 63-62 win should be “old-hat” 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. UCF (CBS C) — After a Marcus Jordan puts UCF ahead 62-60 with :39 left, the Tigers have a fi nal chance to tie or win the game. A UCF foul with :17 left give Memphis the fi nal possession of the game. On that last possession, Will Barton fi nds his brother, Antonio, in the right corner for a game-winning three-pointer with :02.6 remaining for the 63-62 victory.vs. Southern Miss (CSS) — After the Golden Ea-gles hit 1-of-2 FT with :06.7 on the clock, the ball

LAST MEETINGIN MEMPHIS

Memphis 76 • Southern Miss 69Feb. 27, 2010 • FedExForum

Memphis struggled early, but used 22 second-half points from Elliot Williams to slide past Southern Miss 76-69 in Conference USA action. Williams’ 22 second-half points are his second-most in a single half this season. He previously scored 25 points in the fi rst half against Southern Miss in Hat-tiesburg, Miss., on Jan. 9. Roburt Sallie also came up big against the Golden Eagles, scoring 20 points on an effi cient 6-of-8 shoot-ing. Sallie knocked down 5-of-6 from beyond the arc, tying his season high for points. The Tigers struggled early, scoring just four points in the fi rst eight minutes of the contest. That, combined with an 8-0 run by Southern Miss to open the game, al-lowed the Golden Eagles to take a 15-4 lead with 11:50 remaining. Memphis, however, found its rhythm and used back-to-back triples from Sallie and Willie Kemp, coupled with a layup from Will Coleman, to tie the game at 18-all. Neither team could pull away for the rest of the half, and Memphis took a 33-32 advantage into halftime. The Tigers appeared poised to breakaway after an old-fashioned, three-point play from Williams put Memphis ahead 42-37 at the 16:02 mark of the second half. Southern Miss, however, responded with an em-phatic dunk by Josimar Ayarza and a jumper by R.L. Horton to cut the Memphis lead to one at 42-41. Memphis effectively put the game away when

Williams scored fi ve-straight points to put Memphis in front 60-49 with 7:30 remaining. Horton hit three triples down the stretch to keep things close, but Wil-liams nailed 5-of-6 free throws in the last two minutes to seal the victory for Memphis. Southern Miss was led by Horton, who scored 24 points on 8-of-13 shooting and 5-of-7 from beyond the arc.

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 andgives 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. The victory keeps the Tigers’ C-USA win streak intact.2007-08vs. UAB (CSS) — The Tigers, ranked No. 1 in the nation with a 23-0 record, found themselves down to rival UAB 77-70 with 1:21 left. After a Blazer FT makes it 78-76 with under 15 seconds left, Chris Douglas-Roberts drives the lane and is fouled with :06.5 on the clock. He hits the FT to give Memphis a 79-78 lead. UAB’s game-winning attempt comes after the buzzer, and the Tigers escape with the win.2006-07vs. Texas A&M (NCAA; CBS) — With the Tigers down 64-63, Andre Allen shoots a jumper that ig-nites a fl urry of action at the rim in which Memphis gets a couple of chances to score. On the fi nal re-bound, Antonio Anderson is fouled with :03.1 left. Anderson hits both free throws for a 65-64 lead. The Aggies’ inbounds attempt is defl ected out-of-bounds near mid-court by Robert Dozier and clock runs down to under two seconds. Texas A&M gets off a halfcourt shot, but misses and Memphis wins.vs. Gonzaga (ESPN) — After two FT, Gonzaga takes a 77-76 lead with :17.6 left in OT. The Ti-gers respond with a Chris Douglas-Roberts “cut-across-the-lane” layup with :05.6 on the clock for a 78-77 lead. Douglas-Roberts is fouled, but misses the FT. Gonzaga rebounds, but Jeremy Pargo’s half-court heave bounces off the rim and Memphis wins.

BACK-TO-BACK LOSSES RARE FOR TIGERS For the fi rst time since the 2004-05 campaign, Memphis lost in consecutive games when the Tigers dropped their two decisions to Marshall 85-70 Jan. 29 and Tulsa 68-65 Feb. 2. Prior to the recent two-game skid, the last time Memphis dropped back-to-back games was the end of the 2004-05 regular season with losses to Saint Louis and Cincinnati. In case you’re counting, the number of games between both two-game losing streaks was 213 con-tests. Also, in case you’re wondering, the last time Memphis had more than a two-game losing streak

was the end of the 2004-05 regular season. The Ti-gers closed regular season play with four-consecu-tive losses to Charlotte, Louisville, Saint Louis and Cincinnati.

THE LAST TIME THAT... The Tigers dropped their last home game at Fe-dExForum with a 68-65 setback to Tulsa on Feb. 2. Saturday’s game versus Southern Miss is Memphis’ fi rst game back at FedExForum since that loss. The last time Memphis lost back-to-back home games was the end of the 2004-05 regular season. The Tigers lost to Louisville 53-44 on Feb. 26, 2005, and then dropped their regular season fi nale to Cin-cinnati 62-60 on Mar. 5, 2005.

PASTNER SEVENTH-YOUNGEST HEAD COACH IN NCAA DIVISION I IN 2010-11 If you ask Josh Pastner about his age, he just says it’s a number. And it is. However, Pastner’s age makes him one of the youngest head coaches in NCAA Division I in 2010-11. The following lists the youngest head coaches in NCAA Division I:

Coach, School Age BirthdateAndy Toole, Robert Morris 30 Sept. 11, 1980Jason Capel, Appalachian State 30 Jan. 15, 1980Brian Wardle, UW-Green Bay 31 Oct. 10, 1979Dane Fife, IPFW 31 July 26, 1979Adam Walsh, Centenary 31 May 7, 1979Jason James, UT Martin 33 Oct. 10, 1977Josh Pastner, Memphis 33 Sept. 26, 1977Bobby Washington, Grambling 33 June 1, 1977John Gallagher, Hartford 33 May 27, 1977Joe Pasternack, New Orleans 33 Apr. 15, 1977

TSAFACK REINJURED KNEE EARLY JANU-ARY; WILL APPLY FOR MEDICAL REDSHIRT With Wesley Witherspoon’s surgery and An-gel Garcia’s decision to play professional ball over-seas at semester’s end, head coach Josh Pastner decided to take the redshirt off freshman Hippolyte Tsafack on Dec. 12. In his fi rst regular season ac-tion versus Austin Peay Dec. 16, Tsafack played 10 minutes and had three points and one blocked shot. He also played four minutes versus Texas A&M-Corpus Christi Dec. 20 and two minutes versus No. 10/9 Georgetown Dec. 23. In a Dec. 27 practice, Tsafack suffered a knee injury, but a Dec. 28 MRI was negative. Tsafack, who had seen practice time right after the new year, reinjured his knee in early Janaury and is out for the rest of the season. Tsafack will apply for a medical redshirt at the end of the 2010-11 campaign.

MORE MEMPHIS HOOPSHISTORY MADE VS.

SOUTHERN MISS

In addition to the history made in the Jan. 19 game at Southern Miss, the rivalry has had other historical moments for the Tigers, and the follow-ing notes those:

DO YOU REMEMBER?... PART I Although the Tigers will not suffer a regular season sweep to a C-USA foe in 2010-11, the last Conference USA school to accomplish that feat is Southern Miss. In the 2000-01 campaign, the Golden Eagles swept Memphis in the regular sea-son with wins in Memphis 75-67 and Hattiesburg 74-55. In case you’re counting, the number of years since a Conference USA foe swept Memphis in the regular season is 10 years. The Tigers carry that streak into the 2011-12 season, as the worse they can do this year is split with their two-time league opponents.

DO YOU REMEMBER?... PART II Tiger fans should remember it, but if not, it may be in the Memphis record book for some time. In the words of former ESPN SportsCenter host Dan Patrick, Elliot Williams was en fuego — on fi re — from the three-point line in the Tigers’ 59-57 Conference USA victory over Southern Miss Jan. 9, 2010. Williams shot 8-of-12 from the arc in the win, including 7-of-10 in the fi rst half. The eight treys made are the second-most for a single game in Memphis basketball history. The record of 10 three-pointers made in a game was set in the 2009 NCAA Tournament fi rst round by Roburt Sallie. However, the eight three-pointers made are a school record for most treys made in a league game. The previous single-game conference mark for treys made was seven by Jeremy Hunt versus UAB in 2006-07 and Rodney Newsom versus Cincinnati in 1994-95.

DO YOU REMEMBER?... PART III Southern Miss was Memphis’ last opponent before the Tigers took over the top spot in both na-tional polls in 2007-08. On Jan. 19, 2008, the No. 2/2 Tigers defeated the Golden Eagles 83-47 at Fe-dExForum. Memphis’ victory came on the heels of a North Carolina 82-80 home loss to Maryland earlier that day. The Tar Heels were ranked No. 1 at the time. Two days later (Jan. 21), Memphis climbed into the No. 1 position in both polls and remained there for a school-record, fi ve-straight weeks. It was the program’s fi rst No. 1 ranking since 1982-83.

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 fi ve steals and four as-sists in 23 minutes of action. Fellow freshman Chris Crawford was also perfect from the fi eld, fi nishing with 16 points on a perfect 6-of-6 from the fi eld 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 fi ve rebounds. Sophomore Drew Barham fi nished with career-highs in both points (13) and reb1 full force, holding the Gents to 26.1 shooting from the fi eld, 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 fi gures, with a trio of players fi nishing with six points (Jeron Trotman, Aaron Harwell, and Logan Lowery.)

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 fi nished 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 fi ve steals in a team-high 31 minutes. Witherspoon (12) and Antonio Barton (10) were the only other Tigers that fi nished in double fi gures. 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 fi nished with 20 on 5-of-11 fi eld 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 fi rst half due to foul trouble, found a rhythm after the break and fi n-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 fi nished 0-of-4 from the arc, and Miami shot just 15.8 percent as a team from three.

Wesley Witherspoon netted his fi rst 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 fi rst-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 fi nished 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 fi rst half.

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 fi rst-half hole for the fi rst time this season, as LSU took a 34-33 lead into the break on the strength of 12 fi rst-half points from Aaron Dotson. After the break, Memphis came out of the locker room fi ring 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 fi nish. LSU, though. responded with a 6-2 run to narrow the gap to 41-40 on a contested triple from Andre Stringer, who fi nished 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 fi nding 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 fi nal minute, hitting 3-of-4 from the charity stripe.

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 fi rst 20 attempts from the fl oor 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 fi rst lead of the game at 69-65 with 3:52 remaining in overtime. Memphis fi nally 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 fi nished with 10 points, joining Barton (20), Witherspoon (10) and Antonio Barton (1) as the only Ti-gers to fi nish in double fi gures. Bryant fi nished 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 fi nished in double fi gures for the Red Wolves.

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 fi nish in double-digits in a game that saw Memphis commit 21 turnovers and lose the battle of the boards, 43-41. WKU fi nished 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 fi nished 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 fi nished in double fi gures. The Memphis defense held Juan Patillo to just six points on 1-of-10 shooting from the fl oor. 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 fi rst-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 defi cit to nine again seven min-utes later, this time on Pattillo’s only fi eld 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 fi nished 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 fi gures with 12 points. Memphis battled back from being down eight points on two different occasions in the fi rst half and narrowed the defi cit to 37-35 at halftime on the strength of Crawford’s 12 fi rst-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 fi nished in double digits for Kansas. Memphis struggled shooting the ball, making just 27-of-72 (37.5 percent) attempts from the fl oor, 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 fl oor. 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 fi rst-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 defi cit 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’ fi rst 20 points of the second half. The Tigers fi nally 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 fi rst 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 fl oater 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 fi rst 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 fi nished the fi rst 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 fi nished 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 fi nal 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 fi nish in double fi gures. The junior transfer from New Or-leans fi nished 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 fi nished 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 fi rst-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 fi nal six minutes. In the fi rst 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 fl oor 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 fi eld 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 fi ve 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 fi gures 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 fi rst 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 fi rst 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 fi eld 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 fi eld 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 fi rst half, as Tennessee State connected on 10-of-11 three-point at-tempts in the fi rst 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 fi rst-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 fi rst half. Tennessee State didn’t slow down after halftime, as the visiting Tigers came out fi ring 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 fi fth 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 fi nish 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 fi nished in double fi gures for Tigers, which was seeking their fi rst 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 fi nish 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 fi eld (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 defi cit 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 fi rst half on a 7-0 run sparked by fi ve 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 fi eld 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 fi nished with nine points and six rebounds in the losing effort, while Drew Barham and Antonio Bar-ton fi nished 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 fl oor and 57.1 percent from the arc. Memphis hit 46.2 percent from the fi eld 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 fl oor for the fi nal 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 fi rst 12 minutes to tie the game at 49-all. East Carolina hit 5-of-8 from beyond the arc in its run. The Pirates briefl y 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 fi nished with 12 points and seven rebounds while battling foul trouble throughout the second half. Coleman fi nished with 11 points, including going 7-of-12 from the charity stripe, as the senior fi nished in double fi g-ures for the second-straight game. Morrow led the way for the Pirates, fi nishing 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 fi nish in double fi gures.

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 fi ve-straight points, capped by a reverse layup and three-point play with 3:16 left, to give SMU its fi rst lead of the game at 51-48. Collin Mangrum, who fi nished 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 fi rst 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 fi nal 30 seconds, but the Tigers missed fi ve 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 fi nish in dou-ble fi gures with 11 points. Tarik Black added nine points and fi ve 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 fi rst 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 fl oor 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 fi eld goal for over six minutes dur-ing the Tigers’ decisive fi rst-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 fi nished 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, fi nished 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, fi ve-assist effort. DeAndre Kane led Marshall with 16 points and fi ve rebounds, while Tirrell Baines added 15 points of his own. Pitts fi nished with 14 points, but shot just 4-of-16 from the fl oor. The Tigers fi nished the game shooting 50.9 percent from the fl oor 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 fl oor 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 fi rst 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) fi ve 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 fi rst 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 fi nal 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 fi rst 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 fi nished with a game-high 21 points.

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 fi fth-straight loss 77-61 in Con-ference USA action at FedExForum. Barton, playing in front of his father for the fi rst time this season at FedExForum, didn’t disappoint. The fresh-man wing scored 14 of his 17 points in the fi rst 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 fi rst 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 fi nished the half on a 15-2 run — fueled by seven points from Barton and fi ve from Chris Crawford — to take a 47-28 halftime lead and put the game out of reach. Crawford fi nished with 10 points in the contest, as four Tigers mustered double-fi gures 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 fi rst fi ve minutes of play. Black fi nished with a career-best fi ve blocks to comple-ment nine points and four rebounds in 22 minutes. Antonio Barton fi nished with nine points on 4-of-6 shooting. Sophomore Drew Barham, making his fourth-con-secutive start, fi nished with fi ve points, fi ve 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 fi nish in double fi gures, tallying 10 points in 15 minutes off the bench. The Tigers shot 48.5 percent from the fi eld, while holding the Knights to 35.5 percent from the fl oor 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 fi nal 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 fi n-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 fl oor to start overtime, the Tigers responded by scoring the fi rst fi ve points in the extra period before Johnson cut the lead to 73-70 with 35 seconds remaining. Memphis countered when Tarik Black, who fi nished with 15 points and hit all fi ve of his fi eld 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 fi nish in double fi gures, as the senior fi nished with 13 points and three rebounds off the bench. The Tigers shot 28-of-53 (52.8 percent) from the fl oor, including 6-of-18 (33.3 per-cent) from long range. Moore, who scored 13 of the Blazers’ fi rst 23 points, fi nished with 24 points and 11 rebounds. Jamarr Sanders scored 15 points, but was 0-of-10 from the three-point arc. Johnson added fi ve assists and four rebounds. Despite coming into the contest ranked 10th in C-USA in three-point fi eld goal percentage defense, Mem-phis held UAB without a trifecta until the 13:32 mark in the second half. The Blazers fi nished the contest just 2-of-23 from deep.

GAME #22Tulsa 68 • Memphis 65

Feb. 2, 2011 • Memphis, Tenn.

The Memphis Tigers, owners of the nation’s best re-cord in conference home games over the last fi ve years, fought one of their toughest battles of the season before falling to a veteran-laden Golden Hurricane squad 68-65 in Conference USA action. Memphis did a good job defending C-USA scoring leader Justin Hurtt. The Tulsa guard missed his fi rst 11 shots from the fi eld and was held to no fi rst-half points for the fi rst time this season due, in large part, to the defensive presence of freshman guard Chris Crawford, who marked the senior guard throughout the contest. An early Tarik Black dunk set the tone for the Tigers, who scored their fi rst 20 points from inside the paint. How-ever, a four-minute scoring drought in the fi rst half allowed Tulsa to grab a 23-21 lead with under fi ve minutes to play before halftime. A four-point play from Will Barton jump-started the offense again for the Tigers, whose offense had gotten stagnant after Black left the game with three fouls. Mem-phis nursed a three-point lead at 30-27 into halftime. Memphis started out strong in the second half, stretch-ing the lead out to 10 points at 37-27 with 17:11 left. The run was highlighted by a D.J. Stephens’ monster dunk. The Tigers held Tulsa without a bucket for almost three min-utes to begin the second half before Hurtt fi nally got on the board. Tulsa slowly chipped away at the Tiger lead, whittling the defi cit down to one with eight minutes remaining. A Joe Jackson foul on Tulsa’s Scottie Haralson three-point attempt gave Tulsa its fi rst lead of the second half with 7:36 to go, but Will Barton equalized the game at 51-all on the other end with two made charity tosses. Antonio Barton then made another huge three-pointer for the Tigers, his second of the game, to put Memphis up two at 54-52 with 5:50 left. The teams traded baskets and possessions down the stretch with neither gaining the upper hand for long. Two Hurtt free throws with 1:19 to go put the Golden Hurricane up one at 62-61. Hurtt then followed with a runner in the lane with 36 seconds left put Tulsa on top for good at 64-61. Crawford put up a three early in the shot clock on the next possession that was unsuccessful. After an exchange of free throws and layups, the Tigers had a fi nal chance to tie the game when Antonio Barton stole the Tulsa in-bounds with :05 left. His and his brother’s desperation three-point attempts both came up short.

GAME #23Memphis 62 • Gonzaga 58

Feb. 5, 2011 • Spokane, Wash.

Antonio Barton scored 17 points, including the last four, and his brother, Will, added 12 points, seven rebounds and six assists to lead Memphis to a 62-58 non-conference victory over Gonzaga at Spokane Arena. Leading 32-30 at the half, Memphis went on a 15-4 run out of the locker room to open a 47-34 advantage, with an Antonio Barton trifecta at the 13:38 mark the fi nal three poitns of the spurt. Memphis, however, would go almost the next 13 minutes without a fi eld goal, and the Bulldogs-fought back to take a 54-53 lead with 3:03 to play. After a second-consecutive layup from Robert Sacre, Charles Carmouche fi nally ended the Tigers’ fi eld goal drought with a triple from the right corner to tie the game at 56-all with 1:44 to play. Will Barton and Scare then each made a pair of free throws before Antonio Barton knocked down a 17-foot jumper to give the Tigers the lead 60-58 with 35 seconds to play. On the next Bulldogs’ possession, Tarik Black poked the ball away from Sacre, and Antonio Barton recovered the loose ball and was fouled with :01.9 left. Barton knocked down both free throws to seal the game and fi ttingly stole the ensuing Gonzaga inbounds play to close out the victory. Carmouche fi nished with 13 points, including three big-time three-pointers. Trailing 25-17 in the fi rst half, Car-mouche nailed a shot from long range to start an 8-0 run in which Memphis tied the game at 28-all. Will Coleman was solid coming off the bench, fi nish-ing with nine points on 4-of-5 shooting to go along with seven rebounds in 30 minutes of action. Black fi nished with six points and seven rebounds, including fi ve on the offensive glass. Memphis outrebounded Gonzaga 36-29. Steven Gray led the way on offensive for Gonzaga with 12 points on 4-of-14 shooting, and Kelly Olynyk (10 points) was the only other player to fi nish in double fi gures. Sacre fi nished with nine points and three rebounds, while Elias Harris struggled to eight points on 3-of-9 shooting. The Tigers improve to 5-2 in the all-time series with Gonzaga, including all three games in Spokane. Memphis committed a season-low 10 turnovers in the victory, and the Tiger bench outscored the Bulldogs’ reserves 44-19.

Will Barton, who assisted on his brother’s game-winning trey, led all scorers with 15 points. He also had a game-high tying seven rebounds.

Isaac Sosa led the Knights with 14 points, and Mar-cus Jordan added 12 points and fi ve assists. Keith Clanton grabbed seven boards to go with his nine points. The Tigers were down 60-55 with 3:30 left after an A.J. Tyler jumper. Memphis answered with a Black layup at the 2:56 mark to cut the UCF advantage to 60-57. After an exchange of missed baskets, Memphis got the ball with 1:23 remaining. With only 10 seconds left on the shot clock, Carmouche found Will Barton open in the right corner, and he nailed the trifecta to tie the game at 60-all with :58 left. Will Barton was fouled on the play, but missed the free throw. After a timeout on its ensuing possession, UCF went to Jordan, who made a clean cut to the hoop for a layup that put the Knights back in the lead at 62-60 with :39 on the clock. The Tigers rushed the ball up the court to get a quick score inside, but Black was fouled with :17 left, giv-ing Memphis the last possession of the game. On that possession, Will Barton tried to get open for a three-pointer, but passed the ball to Antonio Barton in the right corner for the game-winning trey with :02.6 left. Jor-dan’s desperation shot missed at the buzzer, and Memphis left Orlando with the win. In the fi rst half, it looked as if the Tigers were going to pull away. Memphis built a 32-23 advantage after a Cole-man dunk at the 3:17 mark. UCF, though, responded with a 7-0 run to close the fi rst half and take momentum into the locker room. Memphis shot 44.6 percent from the fi eld, while hold-ing UCF to 39.3 percent from the fl oor. The Knights were hot from the arc, hitting 50 percent of their trey attempts. The Tigers won the battle on the glass 36-32.
