Independent Journalism in Miami Needs You
We need to raise $10,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
Oh, no! Your Miami Hurricanes basketball team has fallen out of the AP’s Top 25 poll! They’re currently 5-2, and both of those losses were to unbeaten teams, so there’s not that much shame and a good chance for a resurgence. But tonight they get the chance to let off some steam and build up some confidence against cross-town rivals, the FIU Golden Panthers. The Panthers are currently 4-5, and Miami will get the home-court advantage.
Tip-off is at 7:30 p.m. Don’t expect a brawl, unless underdog FIU is victorious. In which case Cane fans might try to take it out on their own team.
