Here is the schedule for the second round of the TSSAA football playoffs on Nov. 2. All games will be played at 7 p.m.

The Memphis Tigers (5-4, 2-3 American Athletic Conference) won their first road game of the season in a back-and-forth and points-filled contest with the East Carolina Pirates (2-6, 0-5 AAC).

The playoffs have arrived. And whether your team went 10-0 in the regular season or didn't win a game at all, the cliche is true. Everyone is 0-0 now.

Head coach Penny Hardaway voiced frustration with forward Lance Thomas’ waiver situation in Thursday’s media availability.

The helicopter navigated through the baseball lights and utility wires to touch down on the front lawn of the Billy J. Murphy Athletic Complex on Friday, Oct. 26.
