THE TABLE HAS BEEN SET!!

In just 72 hours The University of Memphis Tigers will clash with their most heated rival in basketball---the UT Volunteers. There will be no love lost between these two schools and the vols will have revenge on their minds after Memphis went to knoxville last year and defeated them. The FedEx Forum is sold out for this afternoon new year's eve contest and festivities begin at W.C. Handy Park with a pep rally for the team and coaches.
After shooting 51% from the field and hitting 11 3-pointers against IUPUI, the tigers seem to be hitting their stride just at the right time when their schedule is the toughest. its good to see that the Christmas break didn't slow the tigers down. Senior forward Pierre Henderson-Niles had his best game as a tiger, scoring 15 points, 3 blocks, and 1 steal against the Jaguars today. This was easily a career game for him. Elliot Williams had his usual stellar game, a stat-sheet-stuffer, with 27 points, 5 assists, and 2 steals. Williams was 8 of 11 from the field and 6 of 7 from the line. Even sophomore Wesley Witherspoon had a great game off the bench with 11 points (3 for 4 from the arc) in 21 minutes. All in all, the tigers' offense is revved up for the major test against those boys in orange.
Now, we can offically talk about the game that everyone from Rocky Top to the Mississippi River has been waiting on. These tigers are sure ready and eager to keep their hot shooting streak going, especially since they went 7-13 from the arc in the first half, and 4-6 in the second half. Let's just hope that the boys in orange don't have the same success at the Forum!
