In a game that didn't feature too much excitement, the Tulsa Golden Hurricane used a balance offensive attack to defeat the Memphis Tigers 35-14 at the Liberty Bowl. The Golden Hurricane (6-1, 3-0) controlled the clock for much of the game and looked as if they were going to blow the doors off the hosts. The Tigers (1-6, 0-3), well, they fought and fought but couldn't do much on either side of the ball.
