Durand Scott scored 32 points to lead the Hurricanes, who will make their first-ever conference title game appearance. Miami went 14 years in the Big East without ever making it to the final round, and didn't advance that far in its first eight seasons in the ACC.
Maryland looks for its second-straight victory over a higher seed against North Carolina. On Friday, the Terrapins knocked off No. 2 Duke, 83-74. If it can get past the Tar Heels and take on Miami in the championship game, Maryland will have faced the top three seeds in the ACC.
Here is the updated schedule for Saturday:
No. 1 Miami 81, No. 5 N.C. State 71
No. 3 North Carolina vs. No. 4 Maryland, 3:45 p.m. ET
