Memphis Tigers – The Upset is on?
Memphis advanced to the AAC Championship game with a 94-54 beatdown of Tulane. This game was over quickly as the Tigers jumped to an early double-digit lead and it just kept growing from there.
The Tigers rank out as the 31st best team in the nation, second in the AAC, and are a solid 12-7 in the Quad One and Quad Two games this season.
Joe Lunardi, in his Sunday morning Bracketology, would have Memphis as the eighth seed in the East region.
Houston Cougars – Taking Care of Business
Houston finds themselves fighting for the AAC Championship thanks to a dominant 69-48 victory over the Cincinnati Bearcats. The Cougars led by double-digits early in this game and never gave Cincinnati any hope of battling back.
Having already won twice against Memphis this season – an eight point win at home and two point win on the road – the Cougars will be confident heading into this Memphis vs Houston encounter.
The metrics rank Houston as the best team in the nation and they are an impressive 7-1 in Quad One games and 8-0 in Quad Two games this season. Houston does have a bad Q3 loss, against Temple, on their resume.
Joe Lunardi has Houston as the top seed in the West region and the Cougars will not move off that one line with a defeat in the AAC Final.
