How To Watch

What to Know

FDU is preparing for their first Northeast matchup of the season on Sunday. Their road trip will continue as they head out to face the Wagner Seahawks at 1:00 p.m. ET at Spiro Sports Center. The Knights are strutting in with some offensive muscle as they've averaged 78.2 points per game this season.

Last Saturday, FDU couldn't handle Boston College and fell 78-70.

FDU's loss came about despite a quality game from Ahmed Barba-Bey, who went 8 for 9 from beyond the arc en route to 31 points. Another player making a difference was Terrence Brown, who earned 20 points along with five rebounds.

Meanwhile, the point spread may have favored Wagner last Friday, but the final result did not. They opened the new year with a less-than-successful 64-52 defeat to Chicago State. Having soared to a lofty 120 points in the game before, the Seahawks' point total in this one was quite the letdown.

FDU's loss was their 11th straight on the road dating back to last season, which dropped their record down to 4-11. As for Wagner, their defeat dropped their record down to 8-6.

FDU is hoping to beat the odds on Sunday, as the experts think they're headed for a loss. They might be worth a quick bet since they're sitting on a seven game streak of covering the spread when playing as the underdog.

FDU came out on top in a nail-biter against Wagner in their previous matchup back in March of 2024, sneaking past 57-54. Will FDU repeat their success, or does Wagner have a better game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
