A trip to Illinois awaits the Miami Hurricanes, where they’ll face the Illini of Illinois Monday in Champaign as part of the Big Ten-ACC Challenge. UM will try to get back to winning ways following two losses before a Thanksgiving break.
The Canes (4-3) are off a fourth-place finish at the Charleston Classic, going 1-2 with a win over Missouri State and losses to Florida and Connecticut, falling 80-55 in the latter.
To avoid dropping a third consecutive matchup, Miami will need to slow down a multi-headed Illini attack that is averaging over 88 points per contest, including over 100 in their two most recent games.
