Men's Basketball Heads to Omaha for Clash with No.15 Creighton

HACKENSACK, N.J. – The FDU Knights (1-1, 0-0) will get another significant test on Sunday in Omaha, Nebraska. That is where the Burgundy and Blue will square off against no. 15 Creighton (1-0, 0-0). Tipoff is set for 5 p.m. ET/4 p.m. CT inside the CHI Health Center.
 
Fans will be able to watch the game on FS1, as it marks FDU's first of eight games on linear television this season.

The Knights are coming off a convincing 112-72 win over Purchase in their home opener on Thursday. 11 Knights hit the scoring column, including four who went for double figures. They were led by Terrence Brown's career-best 24 points. Jo'el Emanuel went 6-6 from the field for a total of 16 points.
 
The Blue Jays are currently no. 15 in the AP Top 25 Men's Basketball Poll. In their season opener, Creighton defeated UTRVG 99-86. They were led by Ryan Kalkbrenner, who scored 49 points. He did this on 20-22 shooting. Steven Ashworth also poured in a comfortable 25 points to complement Kalkbrenner's gigantic night.
 
This will be the first time in history that these programs have met.
 
Projected starters for the Knights are Terrence Brown, Tyree Barba-Bey, Dylan Jones, Jo'el Emanuel and Bismark Nsiah.
 
After their battle with Creighton, FDU will remain in the Cornhusker State to take on Nebraska. That game is set for a 8 p.m. ET/7 p.m. CT tipoff on Big10 Network.
