NC State and Miami have plenty in common this year: both more reliant on offense than defense, both with guard-led offenses, both operating without much depth. So the strengths and struggles of this Hurricanes group are very much relatable.
Miami heads into Saturday 9-1 overall, its only blemish an 18-point loss at Maryland. The Canes have a win over a surprisingly good Rutgers team on the ledger, and opened ACC play with a 27-point win at Louisville. Their last time out, they outlasted Cornell 107-105 in one of the most entertaining games of the season.
They can score, all right.
