The American Conference race is as wide open as its been in recent memory. 

Only one game separates the current top six teams in the standings (as of Feb. 10). Memphis is one of those six teams. And, believe it or not, the Tigers (12-11, 7-4 in league play) are as hot as any of them.

Penny Hardaway's team has won back-to-back games (tied for the longest active win streak in The American) and three of its last four. Memphis is in a three-way tie for fourth with seven conference games remaining. 

Will the Tigers close strong and win back some of the goodwill it lost earlier this season? Or, will it be Tulsa who pushes away? Or, could South Florida make it two regular-season titles in three years? 

On this episode of the Tiger Basketball Podcast, Jason Munz and Jonah Dylan provide their takes on how the rest of the regular season will play out in The American. In addition, Munz and Dylan revisit some of the top storylines that have emerged for Memphis over the past three weeks and wonder which ones deserve more stock than others. They also look ahead to the Tigers' upcoming road games with North Texas and Utah State.
