In Monday’s ACC Action, Florida State beat up on Central Michigan, 94-67, Pitt got by Florida Gulf Coast 86-74 and Miami got a real tussle from Florida International, winning by just 86-80.
The game started as expected, with Miami going up 28-11. But who in the world expected FIU to rip off a 42-13 run right after that?
And then the ‘Canes ripped off a 19-0 run, but FIU didn’t give up, hitting a three with just 1:49 left to cut Miami’s lead to 80-76.
It was closer than it should have been but it’s also the kind of game that will make a team tougher.
