The Tigers and Sycamores have met just four times dating back to 2005, with all four matchups at USA Stadium in Millington. Memphis fell to Indiana State in the lone game between the programs in 2005 but picked up a series win in 2009. The Sycamores enter this weekend off of a home series win vs. Kansas and a midweek two-game sweep of Southeast Missouri State. Indiana State opened the season at two tournaments, with two wins over Minnesota, a win over Michigan, two losses to Ohio State, a loss to #21 Maryland, and a loss to East Carolina. The Sycamores were supposed to play Indiana Tuesday night, but that matchup has been postponed.
