Reserve Cam Corhen scored 16 points on 7-for-7 shooting from the floor as the Florida State Seminoles won their fifth straight Atlantic Coast Conference game, defeating the host Miami Hurricanes, 84-75, on Wednesday night.

Florida State (11-6, 5-1) has won six straight road games at Miami. Overall, the Seminoles have won 11 of their past 12 contests against the Hurricanes.

The Seminoles also got 16 points from reserve Primo Spears and 15 points from Jamir Watkins, including a sensational dunk over Norchad Omier.

Florida State outscored Miami 52-34 in the paint. Florida State also had a 40-14 edge in bench points.

Miami (12-5, 3-3) was led by Nijel Pack (19 points); Omier (15 points, 15 rebounds); and Wooga Poplar (15 points).

Hurricanes guard Matthew Cleveland, who played the past two years at Florida State, was held to two points on 1-for-8 shooting. He entered the game averaging 16.4 points.

The Hurricanes are 9-2 at home, but that includes two straight losses.

Florida State never trailed, leading by as many as 15 points in the first half and going into the break with a 45-35 advantage.

Miami’s defense was ineffective in the first half as the Seminoles shot 51.4 percent from the floor and outscored the Hurricanes in the paint, 30-20. Miami shot just 41.9 percent from the floor, including 2-for-14 on 3-pointers before halftime.

In the second half, Miami cut its deficit to 59-57 with 11:22 left as Florida State called timeout after an 8-0 Hurricanes run that featured a pair of Pack 3-pointers.

After the timeout, Miami cut its deficit to 62-60, but the Hurricanes could get no closer.

For the game, Florida State had a 21-12 edge in second-chance points.

Miami, normally a good-shooting team, made just 25.0 percent of its attempts from beyond the arc (7-for-28). The Hurricanes also shot just 14 for 24 from the free-throw line (58.3 percent).
