Notes...
The Zips are three or 3.5-point favorites. The over-under is 117. I would take the Zips and the under.
Miami leads the all-time series, 23-16.
Tom Gaffney reviewed the crossover games and previewed tonight's game.
Elton Alexander explained how both teams have tournament experience.
If you didn't get a good look of the Zips' new shoes, here is a link. It shows LeBron James sporting them on All-Star Saturday. (Thanks to Mike Curry for posting that link in my comments section.)
I will liveblog tonight, unless my car, computer or something else says otherwise.
