Memphis Tigers

The Memphis Tigers suffered a disappointing loss to South Florida in their first conference game, ending both their perfect start in conference play and their 10-game winning streak. Although the Tigers had a strong first half with a halftime lead of 47-32, South Florida rallied in the second half, ultimately winning the game by one point. Despite a last-second attempt, the Tigers were unable to secure the victory. David Jones led the team with 25 points, including 18 in the first half, while Jahvon Quinerly contributed 15 points and Nae-Qwan Tomlin provided ten points and seven rebounds. Looking ahead, the Tigers aim to recover from their loss as they face Tulane on the road. Currently ranked 31st in the country for scoring offense, the Tigers also hold respectable rankings of 69th in field goal percentage and 105th in 3-point shooting. Defensively, the Tigers rank 223rd in scoring defense, 63rd in field goal defense, and 129th in 3-point defense. They also have a solid 105th ranking in total rebounds per game. However, their performance in turnovers per game is lacking, placing them at 254th. In terms of statistics, the Tigers boast a power ranking of 121 and have a record of 15-3 (7-11 ATS) this season. Their offensive performance proves impressive, with an average of 46.90% field goals made, 74.19% free throws made, and 36.32% three-point shots made. They also average 37.00 rebounds and 13.71 offensive assists per game. However, their turnover count stands at 13.12 per game.

Tulane Green Wave Analysis

The Tulane Green Wave suffered a loss to UAB, bringing their conference play record to below .500. This loss was their third in four games and resulted in an overall season record of 11-6. Tulane faced physical dominance from UAB, being outrebounded by a significant margin and allowing numerous points in the paint. Despite the loss, all five of Tulane's starters scored in double figures, with Kevin Cross leading the way with 14 points. In their upcoming game against the Memphis Tigers, Tulane hopes to utilize their strong home record and improve upon their ranking as the eighth-highest scoring offense in the nation. However, their defensive performance has been lacking, ranking 322nd in scoring defense and struggling with field goal and three-point defense. They also struggle with rebounds and turnovers.

Memphis Tigers Poised for Victory: Exploiting Tulane's Weak Interior Defense and Dominating the Paint

In order for the Tigers to secure a victory, it is imperative that they implement the successful strategy executed by UAB in Tulane's recent loss. By consistently attacking the paint and asserting dominance on the boards against Tulane's vulnerable interior defense, the Tigers will be able to exploit their weaknesses. It is worth noting that Tulane possesses a formidable scoring ability, being ranked 8th nationwide in points scored. However, their defensive capabilities are lacking, particularly in the paint. This presents an ideal opportunity for Memphis to capitalize on their strengths in the interior game. Moreover, when the Green Wave are forced to double down low, Memphis boasts a respectable ranking of 105th in the country in terms of 3-point shooting and 96th in 3-point shots made per game. While it is true that Memphis may encounter turnovers, the advantage held by Tulane in this aspect is not significant enough to overshadow the Tigers' dominance in the paint. As a result, it is more than likely that Memphis will emerge victorious.
