After 40 minutes of hard-fought basketball, Miami and Florida State ended regulation tied 69-69.
But five minutes of overtime was the deciding factor, and Miami (10-7, 2-5) failed to pull through.
“I told them that we did everything right to win the game except win,” Miami head coach Jim Larrañaga said after the game.
Down 76-71 with 1:27 left in overtime, Chris Lykes made back-to-back 3-pointers to pull the game within two points, but a dunk from FSU guard Trent Forrest with 13 seconds remaining put the game out of reach for the Canes. Florida State outscored Miami 14-10 in the overtime period.
