Staff Prediction

This is one of the better under-the-radar games of the day as both teams have combined for only 3 losses on the year. Terquavion Smith has been one of the most electric players in college basketball this year for the Wolf Pack and is coming off a 33-point outing vs Coppin State. Miami guard Isaiah Wong is also coming off an impressive 36-point outing. This should be the great game, but with Miami having home court advantage, take the Hurricanes -3.5.
