- TOP 25
Kenny Kadji scored 12 points, including the go-ahead 3-pointer with 36 seconds left to keep No. 3 Miami (21-3, 12-0) perfect in Atlantic Coast Conference play after a 45-43 victory over Clemson (13-12, 5-8) on Sunday night in Clemson, S.C.
The Hurricanes finished with their fewest points of the season, and their high-scoring guard duo of Durand Scott and Shane Larkin were a combined 3-of-16 shooting for 10 points. Still, Miami pulled out its 13th straight victory on Kadji's wide-open 3.
No. 4 Michigan 79, Penn State 71: At Ann Arbor, Mich., Trey Burke scored a season-high 29 points and freshman Glenn Robinson III matched a career high with 21 to help the Wolverines (22-4, 9-4 Big Ten) bounce back from an embarrassing defeat with a victory over the Nittany Lions (8-17, 0-13).
No. 12 Louisville 59, South Florida 41: At Tampa, Fla., Russ Smith scored 15 points and Louisville (21-5, 9-4) stayed within a game of first place in the Big East with a lopsided victory over South Florida (10-15, 1-12).
No. 20 Wisconsin 71, No. 13 Ohio State 49: At Madison, Wis., Ben Brust and Jared Berggren each scored 15 points as the Badgers (18-8, 9-4 Big Ten) routed the Buckeyes (18-7, 8-5).

Arizona led by as many as 13 early in the second half only to see the Utes respond with a 14-3 run to tie it at 51 with 7:28 remaining on Jason Washburn's tip-in.
California 76, Southern California 68: At Berkeley, Calif., Allen Crabbe finished with 23 points and 10 rebounds and Justin Cobbs added 22 points to lead the Bears (16-9, 8-5 Pac-12) past the Trojans (12-14, 7-6).
