The Memphis Tigers cost backers in a key spot Sunday as a big favorite over a Tulane team that had lost five games in a row. It was a tough game to lose for the Tigers who are now back to below .500. Yet, UAB is a team that has been focused on the road and lackluster at home. They’ve won five straight conference road games, but lost four straight home games. Tail Memphis.
UAB is 0-4 in conference home games, while Memphis is 1-6 in true road games. The Tigers' lone road win came over a month ago at Rice. Memphis continues to deal with key injuries and leads the American with 14.3 turnovers per game. The Blazers rank second in the conference in turnover margin (plus 3.18). Look for UAB to get a little payback for the Tigers' three-game sweep of the Blazers last season.
