Freshman point guard Markus Burton, who entered the game as Notre Dame's leading scorer (16.3), was held to six points. He did, however, dish a team-high six assists.

In the first half, Notre Dame raced to a 12-7 lead. But Miami scored the next seven points and never trailed again. Miami eventually stretched its advantage to 31-20 on Wooga Poplar's drive to the hoop with 3:39 remaining before halftime.

Miami took a 33-26 lead into the break as Burton in-bounded the ball with one second left and found Davis cutting to the basket for a layup.

But the Irish stayed in the game due to a 7-2 advantage on offensive rebounds.

Burton had just two points in the opening half, making 1 of 5 shots.

Early in the second half, a 6-0 Miami run that included a spectacular fastbreak dunk by Poplar gave the Hurricanes a 46-34 lead.

Then, with 1:46 left in the second half, a Cleveland fastbreak layup gave Miami its largest lead, 62-49, and that essentially put away the Irish.

For the game, Miami shot 46.3 overall and 7-for-18 on 3-pointers (38.9 percent).

Notre Dame shot just 28.6 percent overall and 6-for-32 on 3-pointers (18.8 percent).
