Miami is the toughest matchup we'll have faced since the Big East, potentially all season.
Like UConn, they are capable of scoring from anywhere. You can't necessarily take one player out and beat them. Like JC said about the Huskies, Miami has answers. Do NOT take them lightly.
There's a reason they have a guard making $400k a year in NIL. Wong is on the level of Hawkins. If you double Wong or try to lock him down Jordan Miller is an equal problem. If you try to stop them Pack can score as well. The key to this game is going to be Diarra IMO. You went and got a lock down defender for games like this. Keep rotating the guards and pressing Miami because our advantages are height and depth - but make no mistake they are GOOD.
Larranaga is a hell of a coach. Short of Pitino he's the best coach we've faced so far.
Don't disrespect these guys, they've made a habit of knocking off the "better" teams they've played in this tournament. If UConn isn't careful we could be on that list.
