1) This will be FGCU’s second SEC opponent in less than a week as the Eagles had a halftime lead at Florida on Friday before falling short. 2) FGCU’s 57-point win over Ave Maria on Sunday was the second-largest in program history, and the 34 points allowed were the third-fewest all-time. 3) Freshman Reggie Reid ranks 4th in the nation in assist rate at 47.2% – the percentage of field goals made that a player assists on while in the game. 4) Reid is the only freshman in the top 20; the only other freshman in the top 40 is Ohio State’s JaQuan Lyle (39.7%) at 24th. 5) Christian Terrell is just 17 points shy of eclipsing his entire 2014-15 scoring output – 110 points in 33 games.
