A pair of coaches who teach and demand great defense square off in the Puerto Rico Tip-Off. Miami (2-0) tips off the tournament against a solid Mississippi State squad. This will be the Hurricanes first real test of the season and a nice measure for how far Miami has come in defense. The team focused on defense in the offseason and protected the basket well in the first two games. Miami is 8-3 UNDER the total after a win and 4-0 UNDER at neutral site games. Mississippi State's coach is demanding better defense after the last game, a 76-72 upset to Southern University on Monday night. Mississippi State is 4-1 UNDER the total against a team with a winning percentage above .600. Play this one to finish UNDER.
