Memphis Welcomes Alabama State Wednesday Night
MEMPHIS, Tenn. – The Memphis Tigers are set for their final nonconference matchup of the regular season, hosting Alabama State at 7 p.m. Wednesday at FedExForum on ESPN+.
It will be the first-ever meeting between the two programs after last season's game was canceled.
The Tigers (9-3) are coming off an 83-79 victory over Texas A&M Saturday night, giving them a 6-1 record against Power Five opponents on the season. The three losses by the Tigers this season have been by a combined 10 points.
Alabama State enters the game 1-10 on the year, riding a four-game skid after defeating Eastern Illinois 67-58 on Nov. 26. The Hornets are coached by former Tiger standout and assistant coach, Tony Madlock.
