March 2, 20188 yr This is not a WBB score. The game was in Memphis, no less. I didn't get to see it, but what the heck is wrong with the Tigers? This is the worst home loss since UofM started playing in the FedExForum and the worst home loss since the Tigers lost to #9 Cincinnati, 89-64, back in 1999. "We just got out-coached, out-played in every facet of the game," Tubby Smith said after the beat-down was finished, "which was hard to [fathom] because we had a lot at stake and a lot to play for." Memphis (18-12, 9-8 AAC) was coming off a 4 game winning streak. USF (9-21, 2-15) had lost 15 of its last 16 games. “Some guys kind of looked at this game as an easy win as far as their record, but that’s just something we can’t do," senior Jimario Rivers said. "We just got to come out and play every opponent as if they can beat us because they can.” Unlike the 18 percenters, I have always liked Tubby and hate to see him fail like this. Malik Martin and Peyton Banks lead the Bulls with 19 points each. Isaiah Manderson had a double-double with 10 points and 11 rebounds. More here.
