MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Seth Henigan threw for 364 yards and four touchdowns and the Memphis defense shut down Iowa State's rushing game on the way to a 36-26 victory in the Liberty Bowl. Blake Watson rushed for 107 yards as Memphis (10-3) of the American Athletic Conference amassed 530 yards of total offense and finished with at least 10 wins for the fifth time in program history. Henigan completed 24 of 34 passes and also rushed for 27 yards and a touchdown. Redshirt freshman Rocco Becht led the Cyclone offense, going 22 for 38 for 446 yards and three touchdown passes.
