Miami Hurricanes Basketball: Miami Falls 92-69 in Sweet 16 to Red-Hot Villanova

The Miami Hurricanes finished 27-8 and reinvigorated a program. They advanced to the Sweet 16 for just the third time in program history and sold out the BankUnited Center for every game this season. No, the 2016 NCAA Tournament didn’t end the way the Canes wanted it to, but boy it was a fun ride.

While Miami had a tremendous shooting night of their own, the red-hot Villanova Wildcats were even better as they handed the Canes a 92-69 Sweet 16 loss to end what was a phenomenal and historic season.

“Normally, if I look at a stat sheet and we’ve shot 53 percent from the field, 58 percent from three, I think we probably won the game.
