After a stagnant performance on both sides of the ball against mid-major Southern Miss, the Miami Hurricanes took care of business in the second half to remain a perfect 6-0 at home with a 88-64 win.
Despite the lopsided final score, it was the Golden Eagles who got out to an early lead with a 8-0 run.
From there on out, sloppy ball movement and poor decision making led it to be an ugly yet contested first half.
Southern Miss had 11 turnovers compared to Miami’s eight, but the Golden Eagles did have the hot hand from the field, making 50% of its first half shots compared to UM’s 35%.
