Really shocked they didn't pair up Maryland and Duke.

I was surprised that Miami would be making a trip to Lincoln for a 2nd time in 3 seasons.

Ah Miami.....again.

I guess I stopped well short of jumping up and down capriciously

You know, Miami won 25 games last season & they ended up the N.I.T. runners-up to Stanford. IIRC, I think the finals of the N.I.T. went to OT... "Canes have Angel Rodriquez at PG, they're pretty good. NU will have their hands full on December 1st.

So.....NU gets to go to Cameron Indoor the following year????  Wait, that won't work, Duke can't play home two years in a row.

Miami Basketball to Face Nebraska in ACC/B1G Challenge

For the second time in three years, the University of Miami Men's Basketball Program will be heading to Lincoln, Nebraska to take on the Huskers in the ACC/B1G Challenge on 12/2.

 

On December 4, 2013, The Huskers defeated a rebuilt UM squad 60-49 behind Terrance Pettaway's 14 points.

 

Rion Brown led Miami with 25.

 

Needless to say, these two teams will look drastically different this time around.

 

 

 

(A nothing little blurb, really.  I just wanted to point out the hilariously bad misspelling of Terran's name)

Well, the 'Canes had Ryan Braun doin' work...

Terrance ?

Is it just me, or do we always seem to get the sucka** match ups? I wasn't expecting Duke, but even Clemson would be better than this re-run.

The past 3 years seem to have been generated with a football lore/excitement more than anything else... and there are now 14 mouths to feed in the B1G & 15 in the ACC, so sometimes the scraps are all that's left (either way)~!

I'm kind of betting that they will go out of their way to not schedule us to play Duke unless we meet in the dance...but lol..I could also see that happening and then for the first time in the history of the dance they have Duke sit out that one game and have Miami step in as a subsitute.
