I thought the game was really well played by both teams. If Miami plays like that in the NCAA they could go far. I would not count UNC out of making some noise in the Dance either.

That game put the country on notice about how strong our conference is!
Love to see college basketball played at that high of a level.

Was a great game. Actually had a "flow" as basketball should (and used to), and wasn't marred by a whistle every 30 seconds. Have to applaud the officials. Thought they called a great game.
Still vote to get ride of the TV timeouts, but that's never going to happen... ever.

What an incredible game guys. (Ive been on Miami's typical end of being mediocre or worse for YEARS) Idk about you all, but I felt like I was nearing a heart attack for most of the game. Hairston was a machine, hand in bandages and all. Very impressive performance. Just came to say great game and good luck in the NCAA tourney. I'm just hoping we can play at a high level year in and out. Will hurt losing our Seniors. ACC will be doing heavy damage for sure in the tourney

Great game today Heels! You guys have a great team! Hairston played spectacular for being injured, you would have never known he was. I think the ACC can do some damage in this tournament.
Our Canes may never have another season like this again so its exciting for us to watch down here , I know UNC will be back on top very soon!

I'm taking Miami all the way. We played arguably our best game of the season and still lost. Please Miami, don't let NCAAT inexperience get in your way and mess up my perfect bracket!
