Memphis and Iowa State will meet in the postseason for the second time since the 2017 Liberty Bowl. Here’s how they stack up and what the opposing coaches are saying. 

Nowell is averaging 6.2 points and 2.4 rebounds in five games for the Grizzlies this season. 

It will be the first time Memphis has participated in the Liberty Bowl since the Tigers lost 21-20 to Iowa State in 2017.

Good teams suffer head-scratching losses all the time. But the concern surrounding the Tigers is more about how they lost Saturday than the loss itself.

The Grizzlies fought hard against the Suns, but fell short after a fourth-quarter push.
