The Tigers won last night. Unfortunately the Missouri Tigers beat the Memphis Tigers. Not only did they have the same mascot as the Memphis team they had the same game. They were great at defense and played a running/ gunning game. They were scrappy, and playmakers. Well, apparently, the Memphis Tigers don't have game when someone is using the same strategy.
I'm not sure what the problem was. It was a little hard to watch the Tigers from Oregon. They only showed us the first part of the game, and the last. Obviously, they felt that Oregonians were more interested in Duke. We were left trying to watch it on a computer that kept buffering and was apparently a half minute time delayed. It was disconcerting to watch the buffering computer images, and then see a different score displayed on the top of the television screen.
Pacog said that no one could beat the Memphis team if they played the way they played last weekend. Well, they didn't. Oh well. Must give it to Tyreke Evans. He had the best game of his life. He just couldn't do it alone. He will be Freshman Player of the year, and in the NBA next year.
But hope springs eternal for Memphis fans. I hear we have some amazing recruits for next year! We will be at the Final Four next year. For the Memphis fan there is always next year!

Well,they(our Tigers)had a good run,I must say,for this season. As for the game with those "other" Tigers,I would add that the MO Tigers played more guys from the bench,also. We were running out of steam. Coach Cal is staying on,though,and as you pointed out,there's always next year!
