To be fair, if Miami played Purdue or Troy on the road, they'd likely have more than one loss in those games alone.

 

Miami got lucky in getting us at home when we were having an off shooting night too. That's another likely loss.

 

Troy IMO isn't really any better than Marshall who Miami beat comfortably. Miami also didn't shoot well when they played us. We would have been run out of the gym had they shot their season averages.

Troy was red hot shooting against us, despite what I thought was pretty decent defense on our part.

 

Miami has been very luck thus far. The only game that I think we could and should have lost but squeaked out was against Eastern Michigan.

Murray State and Yale would both beat Miami, too. 

Yale has losses to Harvard and Princeton and you think Miami can't beat them? Murray St is #99. Both games were played on neutral court. Miami would be favored in both games.

 

So many of yoi guys sound like jealous exes. Let Miami have their 5 minutes of fame.

Of course they have been lucky to be 24-0. That still doesn't mean it isn't an impressive accomplishments. We were favored in 4 out of our 5 losses. If we won the games we were supposed to we would be at 1 loss, but we didn't. It's not easy to do.

But Miami didn't even schedule games like that, and that's the point.

 

When you only have to get up for a handful of competitive OOC games per season, winning them is WAY easier than having to be focused for most games.

 

So again, if having a cupcake schedule is the road to lots of wins and national recognition, why aren't we doing it?!

They've been lucky but have created a lot of their own luck. For example, if they didn't make those buzzer beaters against Buffalo, they would have lost but they have excellent shooters and made the shots.
