Memphis Tigers Set to Challenge Tulane Green Wave at Devlin Fieldhouse
As the Memphis Tigers prepare to face off against the Tulane Green Wave at Devlin Fieldhouse, fans are eager to see if they can bounce back from their recent performance. The upcoming clash scheduled in New Orleans is a chance for redemption after a tough stretch of games.
The Tigers have shown resilience and determination throughout the season. However, their last three games have been a rollercoaster of results. In their most recent game against the Tulane Green Wave, they secured a narrow victory with an 80-79 scoreline in overtime. This win was characterized by an impressive defensive effort with 7 blocks and 15 steals, showcasing their ability to disrupt opponents' plays.
Despite this victory, consistency has been challenging for Memphis. In their subsequent game against SMU Mustangs, they fell short by just 8 points (73-81). Their field goal percentage dropped slightly to 41 percent but maintained a decent assist-to-turnover ratio of 1.21.
The most concerning performance came in the matchup with South Florida Bulls where the Tigers scored only 46 points – a significant drop-off from previous outings. Their shooting percentages took a hit across the board; two-point attempts were down to just 29 percent and free throws at an uncharacteristic low of 44 percent.
Looking ahead, Memphis must focus on improving their offensive execution while maintaining strong defensive pressure that has become part of their identity this season.
Devlin Fieldhouse could play into Tulane's hands as they enjoy home advantage; however, if Memphis can channel the energy from their tight overtime win and address shooting inconsistencies seen in past games, there's every chance for them to come out on top once again.
