Under his guidance, Memphis ranked sixth in the American Athletic Conference (AAC) during this past regular season with 420.7 yards per game, checking in at No. 5 with 6.2 yards per play. The Tigers had the league’s third-best scoring offense at 34.6 points per game.<\/p>\n

The Tigers tied for fifth in the AAC in rushing yards with 186.1 per game and eighth in passing at 234.6 yards per game. Memphis was eighth in passing efficiency at 140.5.<\/p>\n

The offense was more prolific in 2024 with Seth Henigan<\/a> at quarterback, ranking No. 1 in the AAC in scoring (35.7 ppg) and No. 3 in total offense (444.5 ypg). Last year’s squad had a more prolific passing attack, to the tune of 270.5 yards per game, though the team’s efficiency rating was similar at 141.1. Memphis produced an average of 174.1 rushing yards per game in 2024.<\/p>\n
