“Are we ready to go home?” coach Anderson asked his group. “We don’t look and act like a team that’s ready to go home.”

Anderson continued, “Like i told you, it’s going to be really hard. It’s going to take a hell of an effort…No 16 seed has ever made it to the Sweet 16. You can do something that has never been done before.” Fairleigh Dickinson became the second No. 16 seed in NCAA Tournament to defeat at No. 1, beating Purdue on Friday evening.Anderson mentioned during his pregame speech it’s all about four-minute intervals tonight.The Knights will need a huge effort from guards Demetre Roberts and Grant Singleton, who will match up with an athletic guard-heavy lineup from the Owls.The Owls are 15.5-point favorites heading into tonight’s game which will tip off at 7:45 p.m. ET on truTV.
