MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) Mario Anderson ran for 125 yards and two touchdowns and Memphis defeated Troy 38-17 on Saturday.
Seth Henigan, in his fourth season as the Tigers' starting quarterback, was 20-of-32 passing for 161 yards and one touchdown, moving him into second place for career TD passes at Memphis (2-0) with 82, behind Brady White (2018-20) at 91.
Anderson went around the left side for a 21-yard score and a 21-7 halftime lead.
Henigan's 20-yard carry to the 4-yard line set up his scoring pass to Brendan Doyle and a 31-7 lead late in the third quarter.
Brandon Thomas added two short touchdown runs to move into fifth place on the Tigers' all-time list with 28.
Goose Crowder scrambled for an 11-yard touchdown to tie the score at 7 early in second quarter for the Trojans (0-2) but didn't return after taking a hard hit and fall as he dove into the end zone. Matthew Caldwell came in to throw for 113 yards and score on a sneak.
