RE: The Downfall of the Memphis Tigers Football Program
This is it...
We have a 21-7 lead against UTSA to start the 2nd half.
They get the ball and we force a punt on defense.
We come out on offense and first play hit Dykes for 53 yards to the UTSA 38.
We have a punter kicking FG's, so the 38 is not good enough.
Then we run Thomas for 3 straight plays.
On 4th down, we send our punter out for a 52 yd FG that he misses badly.
UTSA scores TDs their next 2 possessions.
The moment Silverfield decided to run Thomas for 3 straight downs, knowing we needed more yards (and points, with our D), is the moment the season turned.
