TTT Answer

The Tiger football team has won only three games over the last two seasons. Since World War II, what is the lowest three-year win total for the program?

The Tigers went 4-29 between 1980 and 1982. But here’s the silver lining: The Tigers whipped Ole Miss to open the 1983 season and finished 6-4-1 in coach Rex Dockery’s last year. (Memphis also beat Vanderbilt and Mississippi State in ’83.)
