You're looking for the Canes score or tip-off time, and honestly, the schedule can be a bit of a moving target depending on which sport is in season. If you are checking for the hoops game, you’ve probably noticed the ACC is a absolute meat grinder this year.
The Miami Hurricanes played the Clemson Tigers today, Saturday, January 17, 2026, with tip-off at 2:15 PM ET.
The game was broadcast on The CW Network. For those who missed the live action, it was a tough one at Littlejohn Coliseum. The No. 22 Tigers took down Miami 69-59, snapping the Canes' 10-game winning streak.
Finding the Miami Hurricanes Schedule
It’s not just about today. Between basketball, track and field, and a massive football game on the horizon, the "U" has a lot going on.

The Football Championship Buzz
While the basketball team was battling in South Carolina today, most of the 305 is actually talking about Monday. The Miami Hurricanes football team is currently preparing for the CFP National Championship Game against No. 1 Indiana.
That game kicks off Monday, January 19, at Hard Rock Stadium. It’s a home game for the title. Basically, the city is vibrating right now.
Where to Watch the Canes
Streaming has made finding the game a headache. For the basketball game today, it was on The CW, which is becoming a more frequent home for ACC matchups.
If you're trying to catch the next few games, you'll generally need:

- ACC Network (ACCN): This is the primary home for mid-week games.
- ESPN/ESPN2: Usually reserved for the high-profile Saturday matchups or Big Monday games.
- Fubo or YouTube TV: Most people use these to bypass the traditional cable mess.
Why the Timing Matters Today
The 2:15 PM start today was a bit of a "trap" time. Early afternoon games on the road in the ACC are notoriously difficult for South Florida teams. Littlejohn Coliseum was rocking, and Clemson’s defense was suffocating. Shelton Henderson led the Canes with 22 points, but the team hit a season-low in total scoring.
The Tigers basically used a 16-6 run in the first half to put Miami in a hole they couldn't climb out of. Malik Reneau, who usually carries the load, struggled with foul trouble and ended up with just 11 points before fouling out late in the second half.
Tracking Other Sports
If you aren't here for basketball or football, the track and field team just opened their indoor season yesterday at the Jimmy Carnes Invitational in Gainesville. They actually broke two school records. It's a good year to be a Canes fan, even with the stumble today in Clemson.
What to Do Next
If you're planning to attend a game at the Watsco Center soon, buy your tickets early. The Florida State game on Tuesday is expected to be a sell-out.
Actionable Steps for Fans:
- Check the TV Provider: Ensure your streaming service carries The CW and ACC Network before Tuesday's tip-off.
- Gear Up: Monday is officially an "Orange Out" in Miami for the football championship.
- Download the App: The Miami Hurricanes official app (Miami Hurricanes Gameday) is actually decent for live stats if you're stuck at work during a game.
The Hurricanes are still in a prime position for a high seed in the NCAA Tournament, despite the 69-59 loss. A win against FSU on Tuesday would put them right back on track.
