After losing their previous two-in-a-row to South Florida and Tulane it appeared the Memphis Tigers basketball team had issues. Now it appears to be more than "issues" for Penny and his team as the Tigers lost their third American Athletic Conference contest in-a-row Sunday night (1/28) in Birmingham to UAB. Final: UAB 97 #19 Memphis 88
Memphis had no answer for Yaxel Landeborg who had 23 points and 16 rebounds. UAB guard Eric Gaines added 20 points for the Blazers. Yes, Memphis might be a broken team right now.
Memphis guard David Jones led all scorers with 24 points to go along with 9 rebounds on the night against UAB.
Memphis will try and regroup and get ready to host AAC opponent Rice on Wednesday (1/28) at FedExForum at 7:00 p.m. on ESPN+ TV. Full analysis this week on 92.9 FM ESPN, Memphis' Sports Station.
