Believe it or not, the Wildcats have played a pair of games against the Redhawks, a MAC team from Ohio, and lost both games.
Very little information is available about the first game, but it was a neutral site game played on December 28, 1946, in Cincinnati. Miami came away with a 60-57 victory in what certainly must’ve been an upset, considering Arizona finished 21-3 in that season under head coach Fred Enke.
The second meeting was significantly more prominent, as Miami upset 5-seed Arizona in the first round of the 1995 NCAA Tournament. In a game played in Dayton, the Redhawks got 24 points and 15 rebounds from Devin Davis and outplayed a Wildcats squad led by Damon Stoudamire in a 71-62 upset win.
