What channel is FAU vs. Fairleigh Dickinson on today? Time, TV schedule for 2023 March Madness Round 2 game
Fairleigh Dickinson is coming off the highest of highs in March Madness.
The Knights had to play their way into the No. 16 spot in the East region by beating Texas Southern in the First Four, setting up a matchup against No. 1 Purdue. And in perhaps the biggest upset in college basketball history, Fairleigh Dickinson beat the Boilermakers 63-58 to advance to the second round, becoming only the second No. 16 seed to reach the Round of 32.
On Sunday, the Knights will have a chance at even more history. If Fairleigh Dickinson can beat No. 9 Florida Atlantic, it would be the first 16-seed ever to reach the Sweet Sixteen.
The Owls had their own drama in beating No. 8 Memphis on Friday. A floater from Nicholas Boyd with 2.5 seconds left gave Florida Atlantic the 66-65 win, the program's first-ever March Madness victory. The Owls have plenty of momentum, having now won eight straight games heading into its matchup with the Knights.
The Knights will once again be significant underdogs in the matchup against the Owls. While Fairleigh Dickinson's win against Purdue bumped them up to No. 275 overall in KenPom's rankings, Florida Atlantic comes in ranked No. 22 with top-40-ranked offensive and defensive ratings on the site.
Both teams are eyeing the chance to keep historic campaigns for their respective programs going. Which one will make it to the Sweet Sixteen? Here's all the information you need to watch the game and find out.
