After starting the year at 9-3 in non-conference action, the Hurricane opened up the AAC portion of their schedule with a 78-75 loss to 15th-ranked Memphis at home. Memphis led by 14 points at the half before the Hurricane mounted a comeback to tie the game with 33 second left. The comeback fell short but the Hurricane proved that they will be a force to be reckoned with this season. PJ Jaggerty led the way with 27 points while Carlous Williams added a season-high 16 points.
“I'm proud of our team for the number of times they could have said, 'Hey, this is not our night. This is a really good team and we're young and maybe we're not ready for this, yet.' But they just kept pushing, and they kept finding a way to give ourselves a chance. We tied the game there late and hats off to (Jahvon) Quinerly for making a great shot and winning the ballgame for them,” said Tulsa Head Coach Eric Konko l. “We have some things we absolutely need to work on, and that's part of this process. But I love coaching this group and I'm looking forward to practice tomorrow and trying to get ready for the next one.”
