Florida Atlantic men’s basketball embarks on its last road trip of the regular season this week with matchups in Texas against Rice and North Texas.

FAU (7-19, 5-8 C-USA) is coming off an 89-82 loss at home on Saturday to UTEP. After trailing by as much as 18, the Owls cut the Miners’ lead to three late in the contest before their comeback attempt fell short.
