this three game home stand will tell the tale for Memphis...

12/27 - SMU
12/30 - South Carolina
01/05 - UConn

we'll know what kind of team Memphis is after that stretch.

Happy Holidays, y'all!

I would have assumed Memphis would be favored by 2-1/2 at home and will be really pleased if we can win, much less cover

Hoping I'm not the only SMU fan besides Wilfong's family at the game tomorrow.

that would be good...and hopefully in his traditional mop up role, but I wouldn't be surprised to see coach give him some competitive minutes in this one if circumstances allow

Per KenPom:
SMU is projected to win 69-67 (57% Win Probability) [Tier B Game]

When SMU has the ball:
SMU Off: Scoring 110.5 pts. / 100 possessions (#43)
MEMPHIS Def: Giving up 101.4 pts. / 100 possessions (#145) LET’S FEAST

Key stats:
SMU is grabbing 40.3% of all available offensive rebounds (#7)


When MEMPHIS has the Ball
MEMPHIS Off: Scoring 108.8 pts. / 100 possessions (#61)
SMU Def: Giving up 94.2 pts. / 100 possessions (#38)

Key Stats:
Memphis is shooting 31.4% from downtown (#286) – here’s to hoping they don’t catch fire against us
Memphis is shooting 55.7% from 2 (#23) and 65.9% from the stripe (#266)
It’ll take a team effort to contain Dedric Lawson – guy has been playing like a man possessed.

Is this Janks first time as a head coach that he has gone up against a coach who won a national championship?
