Birmingham, Ala. ? The points just stopped coming for No. 3 Memphis – and so did the victories.

Marvett McDonald had 17 points, and UAB held the Tigers scoreless for more than eight minutes down the stretch in an 80-74 upset Thursday night, sending another top-five team tumbling.

McDonald’s jumper gave the Blazers (21-5 overall, 12-2 Conference USA) a five-point lead with 2:47 to go, and UAB made six consecutive free throws in the final 33 seconds to snap the Tigers’ 15-game winning streak.

“Everything is magnified in March,” UAB coach Mike Anderson said. “You want to get momentum, and I think we played some of our best defensive basketball, especially against a very talented Memphis team.”

UAB fans poured onto the court to celebrate a victory that certainly bolstered the team’s NCAA Tournament hopes, and Wen Mukubu jumped on the scorer’s table pumping his fists.

With that late offensive funk, Memphis (26-3, 12-1) missed a chance to wrap up the league title outright and strengthen its hopes for a No. 1 NCAA Tournament seed. The chance was there, with No. 1 Duke falling to unranked Florida State on Wednesday night and No. 4 Villanova losing to second-ranked Connecticut on Saturday.

No. 14 Washington 91, Arizona State 66

Tempe, Ariz. – Mike Jensen made four of five three-pointers and scored 14 points to lead the Huskies to their seventh straight victory.

Berkeley, Calif. – Arron Afflalo scored 21 of his 25 points after halftime, including a tiebreaking three-pointer midway through overtime, to help UCLA clinch at least a share of its first Pac-10 title in nine years.

The Bruins (23-6, 13-4) can win the conference outright by beating Stanford on Saturday or with a Washington loss at Arizona.
