Miami's Coach Jim Larrañaga Dances with Joy After Upset Win Over Houston in March Madness 2023.

Miami Hurricanes defeated Houston Cougars 89-75 in the Midwest Regional semifinal of the NCAA Tournament, leaving the Elite Eight without a No. 1 seed for the first time ever. Miami exploited Houston's weakness by crowding the lane and matching them on the boards. Miami's point guard Nijel Pack's 26 points and three straight threes in a 2-minute, 13-second span helped secure the win. Miami's victory tied the Cougars' worst loss in two years and was the most points given up by Houston in more than five years.
