The game will be televised on TBS.

Gonzaga (29-5) started slow against Grand Canyon but eventually warmed up and wore down the Lopes behind strong performances from Julian Strawther and Drew Timme. 

Strawther turned in a double-double with a game-high 28 points and 10 rebounds while Timme added 21 points, six rebounds and three blocks.

With the win, Gonzaga became one of only two teams to win its opening-round NCAA Tournament game in each of the last 14 tournaments.

TCU (22-12) earned its place in the second round with a thrilling 72-70 back-and-forth win against 11th-seeded Arizona State Friday.

The Horned Frogs were down 44-37 at halftime and trailed by as many as 11 points in the second half. They did not regain the lead until the final 34 seconds of the game and eventually took the lead for good thanks to a floater by JaKobe Coles with 1.5 seconds left on the clock. 

Sunday's game will be just the third time Gonzaga and TCU have faced one another. The two are 1-1 in the previous two matchups and have not played each other since 1998. 

If the Zags can pull out the win they will advance to the Sweet Sixteen for the eighth consecutive year. They are currently the only program in the country to appear in each of the last seven Sweet 16s.

The winner of this game will face the winner of second-seeded UCLA and seventh-seeded Northwestern at the T-Mobile Arena Thursday.
