Miami (OH) Chasing MAC History with Unbeaten Streak

The Miami (OH) RedHawks, ranked No. 25, are pursuing Mid-American Conference history with their remarkable 19-0 season record. They aim to extend their program-best winning streak on Tuesday night against Kent State, having narrowly secured their 19th consecutive win in overtime. This impressive start matches a long-standing MAC record previously set in the 1975-76 season.

The RedHawks' recent triumph over Buffalo was a dramatic affair, requiring a buzzer-beating three-pointer to force overtime. In the extra period, a clutch shot with just one second remaining sealed the victory. This resilience is attributed to the team's composure and depth, especially with key players like Peter Suder and Eian Elmer stepping up after the season-ending injury to their point guard Evan Ipsaro.

Miami's success has also earned them a national ranking, cracking the AP Top 25 for the first time in 27 years. Coach Travis Steele emphasized his team's unflappable nature, noting their ability to perform under pressure. Meanwhile, Kent State is also coming off a hard-fought win and is eager to challenge the unbeaten RedHawks in what is anticipated to be a highly competitive matchup.
