Miami is putting its reputation as a football school on the back burner.
The ninth-seeded women have never before advanced so far in the tournament, and it's been a thrilling ride. They erased a 17-point halftime deficit to beat No. 8 Oklahoma State, beat No. 1 Indiana on Destiny Harden’s tie-breaking basket with 3.3 seconds left andThe fifth-seeded men's run to their second straight regional final has been no less exciting. They rallied from an eight-point deficit with under 5 minutes left to beat No. 12 Drake before posting a 16-point win over No.
“I just tell them football does football and we do basketball,” Poplar said, “and we're both pretty good.” “It was really fun watching their game, seeing them beat Villanova, when they were expected to lose,” Pack said. “Making the Elite Eight for the first time in their program history is something that people didn’t think about at the beginning of the year.”
About the same time, the Cavinder twins, who built their bank accounts at Fresno State thanks to more than 4 million TikTok followers, transferred to Miami.
