In order to complete its season-opening, four-game homestand and begin the Hall of Fame Classic next week in Kansas City, Missouri, a perfect 4-0, Cincinnati will need to get past a Presbyterian team that Miller warned is "really good."
"Presbyterian may not have the name, but from what I've seen ... they've had some good wins," he said. "They're a good basketball club, so we've got to play a little bit better on Thursday night."
After an 11-point loss at Clemson in its season opener, Presbyterian bounced back with consecutive overtime victories over the Virginia Military Institute and The Citadel.
The Blue Hose will look to capture a third straight win and halt Miller and the Bearcats' early momentum on Thursday.
Miller is looking to become the first coach to win his first four games at UC since Tay Baker in 1965-66.
