The Knights will travel down to the FLA Live Arena in Sunrise, Florida where they will be part of a doubleheader that will include in-state powerhouse Florida State Seminoles vs St. Johns.  

This will mark the second appearance for the Knights in the Orange Bowl Classic as they also competed in 2010 where they defeated the Miami Hurricanes 84-78. 

The Orange Bowl Classic will serve as Holiday destination event for families and friends to enjoy festivities and entertainment throughout the event during the day. More details will be announced later via the classic’s social media accounts, @OrangeBowl.
