JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - North Florida men's basketball is set to play host for its River City Rumble rematch against Jacksonville looking to complete the season sweep on Thursday, Feb. 20, with tip-off set for 8 p.m., at UNF Arena.
The Ospreys look to take both games in the season series after going to Swisher Gym last month and taking down the top-ranked Dolphins, 81-78. This week's game will be a part of an Osprey basketball doubleheader with the women's team playing EKU at 5 p.m., followed with the men's team going against JU at 8 p.m.
The conference matchup will be broadcasted on ESPN+. Updates for the games will be made on Twitter/X at @OspreyMBB and on Instagram at @OspreysMBB, as well as through live stats provided by UNF.
Every night in each game throughout entire course of league play across America, you better be physically and mentally prepared for that battle, especially nearing the end of the season. Jacksonville has always been an extremely athletic and physical team, which tests not only your habits but ability to sustain those encounters. JU is one of the top defensive and rebounding teams in the ASUN. They have the capacity offensively to put pressure on the rim from every position, while shooting the highest three-point percentage in ASUN league play.-- head coach Matthew Driscoll
