TIGERS BLOW BY GOLDEN EAGLES
TAKE FIRST PLACE AND BECOME BOWL ELIGIBLE

Memphis, TN (AP) -- The Memphis Tigers and University of Southern Miss Golden Eagles went head to head in the proclaimed rivalry game, the "Black and Blue Bowl", Saturday evening. The Tigers didn't dissapoint their fans in Memphis as they completely obliterated the Gold Eagles 44-14.

"We just destroyed them," says captain Wesley Smith, "We hurt them in every aspect of the game and left them crying back home to momma". Smith proved once again why he is being considered as a TOP 10 defensive player for the upcoming 2006 NFL Draft, recording 6 tackles and two interceptions. Smith and the Tigers shutdown game-time favorte, RB Cody Hull to only 21 rushing yards, and dismantled QB Jeremy Young's ability to scramble, shortening him for 5.

Young's day didn't start bright, nor did it end bright. Finishing his day with only 9 completions on 32 attempts for 196 yards and one touchdown, he also threw 4 costly interceptions, including one that presented itself as the "nail in the coffin" when FS Brandon Patterson returned the interception 42 yards and the score.

Player of the Game honors went to QB Willie Hudgens, who is one of the primary reasons for the Tigers' recent success, as he lead his offense going 15 for 28 with just over 200 yards and two passing touchdowns. Hudgens also recorded 37 yards rushing on 10 attempts and a rushing touchdown.

Hudgens main target was to Freshman star WR Corey Singleton, who caught 5 passes for 98 yards and a touchdown. WR Corey Robinzine received his first and only catch of the game when Hudgens threw a bullet from 24 yards for a score late in the fourth quarter.

The Golden Eagles did manage to scrape two touchdowns out of the Tigers. A miscommunication between CB Jamaal Rufus and SS Derek Clenin enabled Young to throw a 72-yard bomb for Anthony Perine for the only score of the first half for Southern Miss. Young himself would score late in the third quarter from 2 yards out after producing a nice 5 plays for 55 yard drive.

Not all the news was good news for the Memphis Tigers, however, starting RB T.J. Pitts suffered a season-ending Torn Achilles Tendon early in the 3rd quarter on an option play. It's unfortunate because Pitts was starting to show why he was considered as Tommy West's "critical mold" for the Memphis offense.

"It's just bad luck sometimes," said West, "You wonder why throughout 4 games there was no injuries in your roster - damn myself for questioning why. Losing T.J. [Pitts] is going to be just another obstacle we're going to have to get over and I'm sure we will."

In regards to the usual question: "Who Will Start Next Week?", West states that he'll go with the veteran, Joseph Doss.

"He did well coming in late today, the rest of the rushing season is his, it's up to him if he wants to take it." Doss gained 42 yards on 21 attempts and his longest gain was 10 yards.

Someone who did run very well, once, was senior WR Ryan Scott who was placed on special teams as a kick returner. After the Golden Eagles had score from Young's run, Scott received the ball off the kickoff, one juke and was gone for 83 yards and the score, taking the breath out of any possibility of a contest for the Golden Eagles to put up. Scott's kick return for a touchdown was the first of the season for the Memphis Tigers.

In one of the more bizarre plays of the game, as mentioned earlier, backup FS Brandon Patterson, playing Nickel CB, intercepted a Jeremy Young pass late in the fourth quarter. What was bizarre about the play because Patterson was the one who knocked the ball out of the air, but the ball hit the back of FS Wesley Smith - bouncing back into Patterson's hands, who returned the ball 42 yards to score a critical blow to the Golden Eagles.

With the win the Tigers take first place in the C-USA East (2nd in C-USA) and receive a bowl eligibility for the GMAC Bowl, an unlikely outcome considering how the Tigers started early in the season. According the projection,the Tigers would be facing the Western Michigan Broncos (6-3), who currently sit at the top of the MAC West (1st in MAC).

Next week, in hopes to continue the 2-game winning streak, Memphis host the only team they haven't faced in the C-USA East, the University of Central Florida Golden Knights. The Golden Knights, also 5-4 but sitting in 4th place in the C-USA East, are coming off a marginal victory over the ECU Pirates Saturday with the score of 35-7.

Re: "Every Man a Tiger" - A University of Memphis Dynasty (NCAA 2007)

Week 11 - MEMPHIS vs UNIV. CENTRAL FLORIDA



Two #45s, big differences between a senior and a sophomore - on paper...


Date and Time: 11/11/06, 3h30pm
Weather: Cold
Surface: Sports Turf




Record: 5-4

Last Game: vs USM, W 44-14

Player Watch: RB Joseph Doss, Doss has got to get his running game going. In for the injured T.J. Pitts, Doss is going to be required to step up for the offense, in times past Doss was the catalyst to some losses for the Tigers, but hopefully he'll be able to erase those memories and move on. Look for Doss to get the ball a decent amount of times, he's got good hands so the Tigers will take advantage of that with some screens.

Grades: OVR(B-),OFF(C+),DEF(B-)

Coach Comments: "This is our home, first place is our home as well, we're not going to let anyone take it away from us."

Injuries:
WR Maurice Jones [78ovr] (SO) - Torn Bicep - 1 Weeks
HB T.J. Pitts [79ovr] (FR) - Torn Achilles Tendon - Out For Season





Record: 5-4

Last Game: vs ECU, W 35-7

Player Watch: FS Jason Venson, it's not often a sophomore is covered, but Venson's ratings speak for themselves. While statistically Venson isn't playing to his 91ovr ranking, he's still going to be a threat to any big play possibility the Tigers had planned on executing.

Grades: OVR(B-),OFF(C+),DEF(C+)

Coach Comments: "We're going to come into this game winning with defense, but we're also going to throw them offguard with our ability to score endless amount of points on offense."

Injuries:
NONE

The ESPN overlays really sets this dynasty apart. It's like I'm reading about real life, except in real life Memphis sucks!
