Larranaga calls out Miami's 2nd-half performance in epic collapse
Jim Larranaga isn't shying away from the fact that Miami got utterly humbled in the second half of Saturday's game.
The Miami head coach pulled no punches in assessing his team's overall performance against No. 18 Duke, calling into question its desire to win and compete for a full forty minutes.
"I think the guys must have thought we'd won the game at halftime," Larranaga said following the game, according to Stephen Wiseman of The Durham Herald-Sun.

Miami took a 36-25 lead into the half at Cameron Indoor Stadium, but interim Duke head coach Jeff Capel must have lit a fire under the Blue Devils, because the team would come out of the half on a 22-1 run to gain a lead it would never relinquish.
The Hurricanes fell to 12-6 on the season and a disappointing 2-4 in conference play, while the Blue Devils moved to 3-3 within the conference and 15-4 overall.
