The Miami Hurricanes knew they would hear their name called on Selection Sunday as an at large bid, and many had projected the Canes to be a six-seed in the field of 68, but who they would play remained a mystery until the bracket was revealed.
The six-seed Miami Hurricanes in the South Region will play the 11th-seed Loyola-Chicago Ramblers in Dallas, Texas on Thursday around 3:00 p.m. ET on TruTV.
The Ramblers are dancing for the first time since 1985 after winning the Missouri Valley Conference regular season and tournament championship where they beat Illinois State 65-49.
