	Description:		Memphis basketball has made a name for itself in recent years as a significant threat in non-conference play. From 2021 to 2024, Penny Hardaway's Tigers are 31-8 outside American Conference play in the regular season. That stretch includes wins over UConn, Clemson, Ole Miss, Michigan State, Arkansas, Michigan, Missouri, Texas A&M, Auburn, Vanderbilt and more. But, after starting the season 1-2 (with one of those losses coming by 14 points at home to UNLV), is it time to reset your expectations? Is it time to accept the likelihood that Memphis may not stack wins against non-league teams the way it has been? Is it time to consider the possibility this season will be more about building toward American Conference play? While ESPN bracketologist Joe Lunardi seems to think so, Jason Munz and Jonah Dylan ponder these questions as they look back on and dissect the Tigers' ugly loss to UNLV. In addition, Munz and Dylan set up Memphis' game against No. 1 Purdue during its trip to the Bahamas. Other topics on this week's episode: the status of the Tiger basketball text group, how Memphis football's season shifted so dramatically and the dominance of the school's women's soccer program.
