This is probably one of the biggest games of the season for UCF and its fans. The Knights have always felt like UF, and the other Florida schools have looked down on them as the little brother. However, the Knights have been one of the better football programs in the last seven seasons of college football.
UF is coming off a bye week, while UCF is coming off a really tough loss against Colorado at home. The Knights' defense simply did not look good, and it seemed like no adjustments were made. The offense did the best it could against a tough defense out of Colorado.
The Gators have struggled so far this season and the Knights are hoping to catch them on their heels and show them who the better team in Florida is.
