Well, it was a good run, but my Tigers lost today to #2 Tennessee 62-66, ending the unbeaten Tiger season as well as the nation's longest home winning streak. It was a hard fought game, but it sure is difficult as a True Blue Tiger fan to lose to the Big Orange! While Memphis still has the best record in NCAA basketball this year (26-1), I'm sure they'll drop out of their number #1 ranking - how far is up to the capricious voting of the sportswriters and coaches.
The good thing is, this game, while a tough loss, won't affect the Tigers in the C-USA picture, nor will it affect whether they make the NCAA tourney selection. March Madness is fast approaching and I know the Tigers will be very hungry.
Cheers, Pearl
