MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — DeAndre Williams had 20 points and six assists, Jalen Duren added 14 points and Memphis finally played to its potential, beating No. 6 Alabama 92-78 to snap a four-game skid. Landers Nolley added 13 points for Memphis, which came into the season with a highly touted recruiting class and topped out with the No. 9 ranking in the AP Top 25. But the Tigers got pounded by Iowa State and lost close games to Georgia, Ole Miss and Murray State to fall out of the poll. Keon Ellis led the Crimson Tide with 19 points. Jahvon Quinerly finished with 12 points and Jaden Shackelford added 10.
