 MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) - Memphis coach John Calipari wasn't focused on his team winning its second straight Conference USA title. It's just a minor step in the big picture for the No. 7 Tigers.
"I don't even know if we addressed it," Calipari said after the Tigers beat Rice 99-63 to clinch the title. "So, we did win it outright? Huh. Congratulations."
Willie Kemp scored 20 points to lead Memphis to its 16th straight win_ the longest in the nation. Memphis (24-3, 13-0 C-USA) also has won 28 straight at home.
