Who would we rather play, Miami or Alabama?

[BuffNut99]

NIT tripleheader tonight on ESPN2 if you can handle it. Miami vs. Alabama, who do we want to win? Who has the better big men? I saw parts of both of their previous games, Alabama looked more impressive to me. Who is the better matchup for the Buffs? Thoughts?

Miami

I think we can beat both but I'd rather play Miami...

I'd rather play Miami. Mostly based on style of play. I think the score is in the 70s or 80s against the Canes, while Bama will keep it in the 60s.

Miami. Alabama will play a slower style of game, and pretty tough defensively.

I think we can beat both as well. Matchup-wise, I think Miami is the preferred choice, but considering how the ACC has fared in the NCAAs as opposed to the SEC, it might be a little bit of a fallacy to think Bama is a tougher opponent than the Canes.

I only watched Alabama play this season and they looked pretty good. They got some big guys that can run the floor and can cause problems for us.

:yeahthat:

Totally agree. I think we win against either but Bama will have more match up issues

The last NIT game Bama played I was afraid of them. Let's go Canes.

I've met Bama fans who I like. (Shout out to Bama Chuck)

Can't say the same for the U.

I'm going for Alabama just for the spirited conversation between fan bases.
