Sam Gagliardi drained a 3-pointer and Warren drove for a layup as Florida Gulf Coast rallied to tie the game 55-55 with 44 seconds left in regulation. FAU's Karlis Silins made a layup for the lead but Warren answered with another layup to tie it 57-57 and force overtime.

The Eagles trailed by as many as 19 points in the second half.
