Canes earns #7 seed; facing St. Mary’s on Friday…

The Canes are in. Even better, The U is a #7 seed instead of the predicted #10 we’ve heard all week. Miami will take on #10 seed St. Mary’s on Friday in the South (Houston) bracket in Little Rock, AR.

A win and Miami will most likely face #2 seed Texas in the second round.

The South bracket is no cake walk. The Sweet Sixteen would pit Miami against the Stanford/Marquette winner and from there, the winner of the Memphis/Pittsburgh.

Hard to tell how much gas the Canes have in the tank after going 2-2 down the stretch. Which Miami shows up in Little Rock this week? The hungry bunch with something to prove earlier this season or the team who had a mid-season skid?

We’ll see. Either way, Miami is in as a #7 seed and allCanes will have March Madness shirts in store first thing Monday!

Go Canes!

  • I hope the Canes come out like they did against Duke at home and go up almost 30. Play like that, minus the late game breakdown, and I think we're good.
