routed Memphis 56-28 on Saturday night.
Crompton surpassed his previous career high of 310 yards with a 10-yard pass to Denarius Moore on Tennessee's first drive of the second half.
He tied his career high of five touchdown passes on the next play with a 16-yard connection with Moore to make it 49-7 with 12:38 in the third quarter.
Crompton finished 21-for-27 and no interceptions and was replaced by backup Nick Stephens halfway through the third quarter.
