Episode description

The Tigers have won six games in a row and 10 of their last 11, after beating Tulsa Wednesday. 

Most NCAA Tournament projections have Penny Hardaway's team as a 4-, 5- or 6-seed. But Memphis' computer-based (metrics) rankings do not match up with that.

On this week's episode of the Tiger Basketball Podcast, Jason Munz and Jonah Dylan discuss why there seems to be such a vast discrepancy between the two. Other topics covered this week are the emergence of PJ Carter, Dain Dainja's difference-making and expectations the "get-back" Temple game and how the rest of the season might play out.
